Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary factor that determines the acidity of a solution?
  • Step 1: Understand that acidity refers to how sour or acidic a solution is.
  • Step 2: Know that acids release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
  • Step 3: Realize that the more hydrogen ions (H+) present in a solution, the more acidic it is.
  • Step 4: Conclude that the primary factor determining acidity is the concentration of these hydrogen ions (H+).
