Can someone please explain why the answer is B
Hi!
The pH would be equal to 3 if we were dealing with a strong acid.
However acetic acid is a weak acid, meaning that it doesn’t fully dissociate in a solution.
Because of this the pH of a weak acid is less acidic than the pH of a strong acid.
So pH acetic acid > 3
Hope this helps!
