Answer:

Option (b) is correct.


10^(-1)\ M of
H^+ values describes the most acidic solution

Explanation:

Given : Some
H^+ values .

We have to determine which of the following
H^+ values describes the most acidic solution.

Since, pH defines the acidity of a solutions and shows the presence of
H^+ in it . Its range varies from 1 to 14 and with increase in number the acidity of the solution decreases and this range of 1 to 14 defines the negative power of 10 in the solution.

Also, as the concentration of H+ increases the acidic nature of solution increases.

Thus, For solution to be acidic the range is from 1 to 6, thus from the given options
10^(-1) defines the most acidic solution.

Thus,
10^(-1)\ M of
H^+ values describes the most acidic solution
