according to the ph range which substance is more acidic than lemon juice?
chart: the ph scale (labeled acid, neutral, base; with substances: hydrochloric acid, lemon juice, cabbage, milk, water, milk of magnesia, lys) and options: hydrochloric acid, milk, water, cabbage

Explanation:

To determine which substance is more acidic than lemon juice, we use the pH scale: lower pH values mean more acidity. From the pH scale diagram, lemon juice is at a certain pH (around 2 - 3). Hydrochloric acid is at a lower pH (closer to 0 - 1) than lemon juice. Milk (pH ~6 - 7), water (pH = 7), and cabbage (pH ~5) have higher pH values than lemon juice, so they are less acidic or neutral/basic. Thus, hydrochloric acid is more acidic.

Answer:

hydrochloric acid
