Which best describes how a ph test strip works?

a. molecules in the paper react differently with hydronium and hydroxide ions
b. the paper dissolves when placed in acids, but not when placed in bases
c. polar moleculee affect the paper differently than nonpolar molecules
d. the paper uses the low surface tension of water to attract acidic particles.

so far i think its a. but i just want to be sure.

Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A pH strip is a strip which helps in determining whether a solution is acidic or basic in nature.

That is, if a solution is acidic in nature then a pH strip will change from blue to red. Whereas when a solution is basic in nature then a pH strip will change from red to blue.

Thus, we can conclude that statement molecules in the paper react differently with hydronium and hydroxide ions, best describes how a pH test strip works.
