Two Solution X and Y are tested the universal indicator . Solution X turns orange whereas solution Y turns red . Which of the solutions is a stronger acid?
Strong Acids are those acids that dissociate completely in water and produces a large number of hydrogen ions.
Example of strong acids include HCl and H2 SO4
Solution Y is a stronger acid as the red colour of the solution Y indicates a pH value of 1 while the orange colour Indicates a pH value higher than 1.
