Question

Which statement correctly compares the pH of water to that of other substances?

The pH of water increases as its temperature increases, while other substances have a stable pH.

The pH of water is neutral; it is higher than the pH of acids and lower than the pH of bases.

Water contains more hydrogen ions than most other substances, giving it a higher pH.

Water is neutral and has a pH of 0; acids have a pH greater than 0 and bases have a pH less than 0.

Answer 1

Definitely B.

Pure Water is always neutral and has a pH equal to 7. Acids are always LOWER than 7, and Bases are always Higher than 7
So... In B it says that
Water is neutral --True
It has higher pH than Acids --True
It has lower pH than bases --True

Whereas in D...
Water is neutral -- True
Acids have greater pH than 0 -- True
Bases have a pH less than 0 --FALSE!
Water has a pH of 0 -- FALSE!
