Answer:

The greater the number of hydrogen ions, the increase in the acid strength.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydrogen ions determine the pH of the acid, greatest number of hydrogen ions give the pH value below 4 hence strong acid, and least number of hydrogen ions give a pH value above 4 but less than 7 hence a weak acid
