Question

Which of these is NOT true?

`A)` Strongly basic solutions have larger `["H"^(+)]` than pure water does.
`B)` Strongly acidic solutions have larger `["H"^(+)]` than pure water does.
`C)` Strongly acidic solutions have smaller `["OH"^(-)]` than pure water does.
`D)` Strongly basic solutions have larger `["OH"^(-)]` than pure water does.

Answer 1

A)

Explanation:

Strong Bases don't have `"H"^+`concentration larger than from water, or they donate no `"H"^+` ions. But this is applicable to typical strong acids, and not bases. Therefore `A` is the correct choice.
