Solution Steps

Step 1: Understand pH and Hydrogen Ion Concentration
  • The pH scale measures the concentration of hydrogen ions (\( \text{H}^+ \)) in a solution.
  • A lower pH value indicates a higher concentration of hydrogen ions.
Step 2: Compare pH Values
  • Lemon juice has a pH of 2.
  • Drano has a pH of 9.
Step 3: Determine Which Has More Hydrogen Ions
  • Since a lower pH value corresponds to a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, lemon juice with a pH of 2 has more hydrogen ions than Drano with a pH of 9.

Final Answer

The correct answer is A.
