A strong acid will, up to a certain point, have a pH which is the negative log of its concentration (in molarity units). This breaks down at anything much higher than 1 M (where even a strong acid begins to have trouble dissociating, simply because there's not as much water around for it to transfer a proton to) or much lower than about 0.00001 M (the pH of a solution of strong acid will always be lower than 7).
a strong acid is lower on the pH scale a strong base is higher on the pH scale
A strong acid is usually of pH 1-3
Strong Acid
A strong acid has a pH of 0-2
Strong acid = 1 pH ( or lower ) Strong base = 14 pH ( or higher ) Neutral solution = 7 pH
It is the strong (pH=0) to weakly (pH=6) acid part of the pH scale.7 is neutral.
Vinegar on a pH scale is red. This means that it is a strong acid and the pH value would be 1/2/3.
Bases run from 7.1 to 14 on the ph scale. A strong base would be in the 12-14 range. A 3ph is a relatively strong acid.
Usually a strong acid will produce a lower pH, but not always. pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid (or base) but the acidity of a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in the solution.
The Lower The pH Scale The stronger the acid ph7 is neutral and the higher the scale past 7 the stronger the alkali is
pH scale is based on 0-14 scale. 0-6 is acidic with 0 being strong acid, 7 is neutral and 8-14 is basic. Concentrated sulfuric acid has pH of one.
Using the pH Scales, if I have 2 Acids, one with the pH of 2 and another with the pH of 5.8, the Acid with A pH of 2 is stronger. 7 in the pH scale means Nuetral, and 14 means very strong Alkaline.
