hard · Enhanced ACT science

A student tested how quickly four unlabeled solutions (W, X, Y, Z) neutralize a fixed amount of acid, recording the volume of base needed to reach pH 7:

| Solution | Concentration (M) | Volume of base to reach pH 7 (mL) |

| :--- | :--- | :--- |

| W | 0.10 | 12 |

| X | 0.20 | 24 |

| Y | 0.10 | 24 |

| Z | 0.20 | 12 |

Which comparison best supports the conclusion that Solution Y is a stronger acid than Solution W (not merely more concentrated)?

  1. Comparing Y to X, since both required the same volume of base
  2. Comparing Y to Z, since both required different volumes despite different concentrations
  3. Comparing Y to W, since they share the same concentration but Y required twice the base
  4. Comparing W to Z, since they required the same volume of base
