Answer
Solution A is acidic with more hydrogen ion concentration. Solution B is basic.
Explanation
A solution with a pH value below 7 is considered acidic, indicating a higher concentration of hydrogen ions (H+). Conversely, a solution with a pH greater than 7 is classified as basic, indicating a higher concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-).
