Answer:

0.1 M weak acid

Step-by-step explanation:

The term pH simply means power of hydrogen which is basically a log (the exponent to base 10 of the concentration) of the concentration of the hydrogen ions.

Weak acids have a higher pH since their hydrogen concentration is lower than that of strong acids.
