The students in Mrs. Smith's class used pH paper to measure the acidity levels between different samples of breakfast drinks. The pH

measurements ranged from 3.27 to 3.88 on the pH scale. Based on this range, we can determine that the most acidic solution had a pH of:

Answer:

The most acidic solution had a pH of 3.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to keep in mind that the lower the pH of a solution is, the more acidic the solution is.

If among the pH readings across the measured breakfast drinks, the lowest one was 3.27 (as the problem tells us with the range), then that drink was the most acidic one.

Conversely, the least acidic one had a pH of 3.88.
