The pH of a solution is inversely proportional to the concentration of H+ in solution. Lesser the pH of the solution, more will be the H+ concentration. The solution A with pH 6 has more H+ concentration than the solution with pH equal to 8. The solution A is acidic because its pH is less than 7 and the solution B is basic because its pH is more than 7.
