Answer:

The difference is 2 pH units.

Explanation:

Let's give an arbitrary value to the H⁺ concentration of solution A, [H⁺]ₐ:

  • [H⁺]ₐ = 0.001 M

If that's the case then the pH of solution A would be:

  • pHₐ = -log(0.001) = 3

----

The H⁺ concentration of solution B ( [H⁺]ₓ ) is 100 higher than that, so:

  • [H⁺]ₓ = 0.001 * 100 = 0.1 M

And its pH:

  • pHₓ = -log(0.1) = 1

So the difference in pH values is:

  • pHₐ - pHₓ = 3 - 1 = 2
