Best Answer

It represents a hydrogen ion concentration of 100, or 1 mole per liter. Any strong acid at 1N concentration will have a pH of around zero.

Note that in the parlance of chemists, 1N is weaker than the stock "dilute" concentration.

Can an aqueous solution have a pH of zero?

No. pH is a log scale. You can't have a pH of zero. ---- Above answer left in to correct a misconception. Yes, you certainly can have a pH of zero. A 1 molar solution of a strong acid has a pH of zero, and stock HCl (roughly 12 molar) has a pH of about -1.1 or so. pH is the negative log of the hydrogen/hydronium ion concentration, which for a strong acid is approximately the same as the acid concentration. The log of 1 is zero, therefore the pH of a 1 molar solution of a strong acid is zero. The log of 10 is 1, therefore the pH of a 10 molar solution of a strong acid is -1.

What does it mean to have the pH of a solution equal to zero?

The pH is define in the following way: pH = -log [H+] What that means is the pH is the negative of the base 10 logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution. So, if you have a pH = 0, that means that the concentration of H+ is equal to 1 molar, because -log(1) = 0. If you have a 1 M solution of any strong acid, the pH will be equal to zero.
