Which one of the following acids has the highest pH value?
Correct answer: C. HF(aq)
- A. HCl(aq)
- B. HNO₃(aq)
- C. HF(aq)
- D. H₂SO₄(aq)
Explanation
pH is a measure of acidity; a higher pH means a weaker acid. Among the choices, hydrofluoric acid (HF) is the weakest acid. The others are strong acids that dissociate more completely, leading to lower pH values.
