Answer

SolutionpH
Neutral (D)7
Strongly alkaline (C)11
Strongly acidic (B)1
Weakly acidic (A)4
Weakly alkaline (E)9
Arrangement of pH in the increasing order of hydrogen ion concentration is as follows:
pH (11)
C
pH (9)
E
pH (7)
D
pH (4)
A
pH (1)
B
pH in the increasing order of hydrogen ion concentration
