The \(\mathrm{pH}\) of boiling water is \(6.4\). This implies that boiling water is
- A slightly basic
- B slightly acidic
- C neutral
- D amphoteric
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) neutral
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The pH of boiling water is 6.4. This implies that boiling water is neutral. When water is boiled, then concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion increases with same extent.
