The pH of a weak base can be anything greater than 7.0. Generally, weak bases do have a lower pH that strong bases, but this is not always true. The fact that a base is weak only means that it does not completely ionize in solution. The pH of a weak base depends only upon the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution.
pH of a strong base has larger number than a weak base...
To determine the pH of a weak base, you can use a pH meter or pH indicator paper. Alternatively, you can calculate the pH using the concentration of the weak base and its equilibrium constant.
any thing with a pH below 7 is an acid and anything with a pH above 7 is a base. So a weak base would be around 8
Weak bases will have a higher H+ concentration.
hii my name is ph 13
To find the pH of a weak base solution, you can use the formula pH 14 - pOH, where pOH is calculated using the concentration of hydroxide ions in the solution. You can determine the concentration of hydroxide ions by knowing the initial concentration of the weak base and its equilibrium constant. By plugging these values into the formula, you can calculate the pH of the weak base solution.
To calculate the pH at the equivalence point for a titration involving a strong acid and a weak base, you can use the formula pH 7 (pKa of the weak base). This is because at the equivalence point, the solution contains only the conjugate acid of the weak base, which determines the pH.
The pH of a strong base is higher (above 7) compared to a weak base because strong bases completely dissociate in water to release more hydroxide ions, resulting in a more alkaline solution. Weak bases partially dissociate, so the concentration of hydroxide ions is lower, resulting in a lower pH.
The pH is higher.
When a weak base is titrated with a strong acid, the pH of the solution decreases. This is because the strong acid neutralizes the weak base, leading to an increase in the concentration of H ions in the solution, which lowers the pH.
If you are using the common English definitions of "strong" (meaning 'more') and "weak" (meaning 'less'), then a strong base will have a pH of 12-14 while a weak base will have a pH of 7-9. However, there is a specific scientific definition of 'strong' and 'weak' when used to describe acids and bases. In chemistry, a 'strong base' is a base that completely ionizes in water while a 'weak base' is a base that partially ionizes in water. If you are using these definitions, there is no way to categorically compare the pH of a strong base versus the pH of a weak base - the two variables do not related. Some strong (complete ionization) bases will have a lower pH (7-9) while other strong (complete ionization) bases will have a higher pH (12-14); the same is true of weak (partial ionization) bases.
The most effective way to maintain a stable pH is by the use of a buffer. These are solutions of a weak acid or a weak base, and the conjugate base or acid, adjusted to the desired pH.
