Question

Mr. Galonski just discovered that he has been turned into a superhero and is now one hundred times more acidic than water! He then found out that he has an arch-nemesis named Baron von Base who has a pH of 11. Using this information, who would be furthest from neutral on the pH scale and therefore "stronger"?​

Answer 1

pH water = 7 = [H⁺] = 10⁻⁷

Mr. Galonski one hundred times more acidic than water = 100 times more H⁺ = 10⁻⁵ ⇒ pH = 5

Baron von Base has a pH of 11

The furthest from neutral (pH=7) on the pH scale = Baron von Base
