Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A solution that contains the same concentration of H+ ions as OH- ions is neutral. Therefore the correct choice is C) neutral.

Answer: E
 pH is a measure of the concentration of H+ ions in a solution. It is used to indicate the acidity or basicity of a solution on a logarithmic scale ranging from 0 to 14, where a pH of 7 is neutral, below 7 is acidic and above 7 is basic. However, pH does not directly describe a solution with equal concentrations of H+ and OH- ions. Therefore the correct choice is not given.
