Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes you can make the pH of a dilute strong acid higher than the pH of a weak acid. ... The lower the pH, the more is present in the solution. Strong acids like hydrochloric acid (HCl) almost completely dissociate into water to form ions. Weaker acids like ethanoic acid () only partially dissociates to form and ions.
