Answer 1

Solution of Question 5:

Greater the concentration of acidic solution means that greater in number it will release the H⁺ ion in the solution. As it is clear that hydrogen positive ion is a bare proton which is highly reactive and associates with water molecule and form H₃O⁺ ion. So, as a conclusion greater the acidity means greater the hydronium ion concentration in water.
