The correct explanation for the relationship is:
**Apple juice has more hydrogen ions than black coffee.**
The pH scale measures the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) in a solution. A lower pH value indicates a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, meaning that if apple juice has a lower pH than black coffee, it contains more hydrogen ions compared to black coffee.
