A certain indicator has a color chart that shows that when the indicator is yellow, the solution is acidic. What is true about a solution that produces a yellow indicator?

The solution has more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.

The solution contains neither hydroxide ions nor hydronium ions.

The solution contains nothing but water.

The solution has a pH greater than 7.

The solution has more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.
more hydrogen ion mean low ph (ph<7) mean acidic solution. so ist option is correct

anonymous · Answer

hydronium= H+ ions, acidic, pH less than 7
hydroxide= OH- ions, basic, pH less greater then 7
