A solution has a pH of 6. What is true about the solution? A. It is a strong basic solution.
B. It is a weak acidic solution.
C. It is a weak basic solution.
D. It is a strong acidic solution.
please help me

(see below)

Explanation:

First, refer to the pH scale:

1  2  3  4  5  6        7        8  9  10  11  12  13  14

<==  acidic        neutral             basic  ==>

You can see that the smaller the number, the stronger the acid and the bigger the number, the more basic the base is. 7 is neutral, such as water. it's neither basic nor acidic.

Now, using the process of elimination:

A) It's a strong basic solution.

No, because this solution's pH hasn't even reached basic.

B) It's a weak acidic solution.

Yes, because it is acidic and it's just a little bit more acidic than a neutral solution.

C) It's a weak basic solution.

No, because this solution's pH hasn't even reached basic.

D) It's a strong acidic solution.

No, because even though it's acidic, it's just below neutral. For something to be a strong acidic solution would be around a pH of 3.

So the answer would be B) It's a weak acidic solution.
