You do the inverse.
For example, let's say [H^+] of 0.00100 M is 3. ( it is 3 lol)
You're asking how to make 3 to 0.00100
Put 3 on the calculator, and press the log (inverse)
First, pH relates to concentration of hydrogen ions, and the question asks for HYDROXIDE ion concentration. So, you have to find the pOH (14 - pH), and then the formula is
[concentration OH- (Hydroxide) ions] = 10^-pOH
For example, If I had a pH of 3.0, I would find the pOH (14-3.0=11 pOH) and then plug it in to the formula. So,
[OH-] = 10^-11, or 0000000000.1 (1.0 x 10^-11)
Using this formula Kw=[H3O+]x[OH-]=10^-14.
Find the Conc. of [H3O+]
then use the next formula pH=-log10[H3O].
E.g. [OH-]=4M.
[H3O]x[4]=10^-14.
[H3O]=2.5x10^-15.
so, pH of (OH)= -log10(2.5x10^-15)
= 14.6 DONE ^_^
The pH is the negative of the logarithm (to the base 10) of the activity of hydrogen ions.
So pH = -log(activity of H+)
For example, if the activity of H+ was 0.0000001 mol per litre (as it would be in pure water at 25 0C), this is equal to 10^(-7) mol per litre.
the log of 10^(-7) is -7
and the -log of 10^(-7) is 7
so the pH is 7
the pH is the negative exponent of moles per liter. for instance a pH of 9 would be 10 to the -9 moles per liter, pH of 6 would be 10^-6 mols per liter, etc.
10^-pH will give you the hydronium ion concentration
pH = -log[H3O+] so take the antilog of the pH
Example:
When pH = 5.0 then [H3O+] = 10-pH = 10-(5.0) = 1.0*10-5 mol/L
1.0 X 10 - 14
Is the concentration, Molarity.
- log(1.0 X 10 -14 M)
= 14 pH
========which means that H + concentration is nil.
Roughly but very cheap this can be done by pH-indicator paperstrips, more precize by using a laboratory pH meter.
Bases have a low concentration of hydrogen ions. In contrast, acids have a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
The concentration of hydrogen ions is commonly expressed as pH.
pH stands for power of hydrogen and indicates concentration of Hydrogen ions. pOH indicates concentration of hydroxide ions.
You will need Kw to determine the concentration of hydrogen ions and You will need the formula pH = -log[H+]
The concentration of hydrogen ions
Concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution is called: Acid concentration and pH = - log10(hydrogen ions concentration, in mol/l)
Bases have a low concentration of hydrogen ions. In contrast, acids have a high concentration of hydrogen ions.
The concentration of hydrogen ions is commonly expressed as pH.
pH stands for power of hydrogen and indicates concentration of Hydrogen ions. pOH indicates concentration of hydroxide ions.
You will need Kw to determine the concentration of hydrogen ions and You will need the formula pH = -log[H+]
< 7
pH is a measure of Hydrogen concentration pH = -log10[H+], where [H+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions. From this equation, we can see that an increase of hydrogen ions will lower the pH, and a decrease of hydrogen ions will raise the pH. =D
The concentration of hydrogen ions
The concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in blood plasma and cell cytoplasm is critical. These hydrogen and hydroxide ions can be combined to form water.
Concentration or quantity? Bases have more hydrogen.
By the concentration of hydrogen and/or hydroxide ions. For example, water (H2O) has an equal concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. Hence, it is neutral (pH 7).
Hydrogen ions: pH under 7.Hydroxide ions: pH over 7.
