Janet Fletcher · Answer 1

Orange juice has a higher concentration of H + ions. hydrogen ions give rise to the acidic properties hence a lower pH indicates a higher H + ion concentration

Elsie Bowman · Answer 2

PH=-lg[H⁺]

[H⁺]=10^ (-pH)

[H⁺]m=10^ (-6.6)

[H⁺]j=10^ (-3.6)

[H⁺]j/[H⁺]m=10^ (-3.6) / 10^ (-6.6) = 1000

Hydrogenium ion concentration in orange juice is in 1000 times more, than in milk.
