pH 3 = 1/1000 pH 6 = 1/1000000 The H+ concentration goes down by a factor of 1000

Explanation:

pH is the negative log of the Hydrogen ion concentration.

So the negative anti log of 10^-3 is 3

10^-3 = 1/1000

The negative anti log of 10^-6 = 6

10^-6 = 1/ 1000000

pH 6 is 1000 times weaker than pH 3
