suppose there are two bottles of acids, both with pH equal to 2. One of the solution is a strong acid while the other is a weak acid.

Suggest a simple method to distinguish the two acid solutions by using the following materials: pH paper, litmus solution, phenolphthalein and distilled water.

I really dont know how the test would be carried out. This is a question in my book

How does pH of both acids change with dilution?
