3. pH is a negative logarithmic scale. Therefore a difference of 100 times more is translated to -log(100) = -2. Recall the formula pH = -log([H+]).

How many times more acidic is a solution of pH 1 than a solution of pH 3?

A solution with pH 1 is 100 times more acidic than a solution with pH 3. This is because pH is a logarithmic scale, where each unit change represents a tenfold difference in hydrogen ion concentration.


A solution with a pH of 6 has how many times greater hydrogen ions than a solution with a pH of 8 a. 2 b. 20 c.10 d.100 e.1000?

d. 100. The pH scale is logarithmic, so each decrease of one pH unit represents a 10-fold increase in hydrogen ion concentration. Therefore, a solution with a pH of 6 has 100 times more hydrogen ions than a solution with a pH of 8.


A solution with a pH of 8 has how many times fewer hydrogen ions than a solution with a pH of 6?

pH 8: [H+] = 10^-8 M pH 6: [H+] = 10^-6 M 10^-6 / 10^-8 = 10^2 = 100 Answer is 100 times fewer


How many times greater is the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution with pH of 4 instead of 5?

there are more H+ ions in a pH 2 solution that in a pH 4 solution. The hydrogen ion (H+ ion) is responsible for the acidity of a substance and so, the more of it there is, the more acidic it is (higher acidity= lower pH) :)


The pH of a of solution A is 2 The pH of solution B is 4 How does the concentration of hydrogen ions compare?

Because of the logarithmic nature of the pH scale, a single step indicates a difference tenfold. As such, the difference in concentration of hydrogen ions between solutions A and B in this example are a hundred fold, with solution A having a higher concentration than solution B.


How many Hydrogen ions does a solution with a pH of 4 have than a solution with a pH of 7?

A solution with a pH of 4 has 1,000 times more hydrogen ions than a solution with a pH of 7. pH is a logarithmic scale, so each decrease of 1 in pH represents a tenfold increase in hydrogen ion concentration.


How many more times concentrated is the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution with a pH of 3 than that with a pH of 5?

Each step in pH represents a 10x concentration difference of H+ (protons). From pH3 --> pH5, there are 2 10x concentration differences of H+. Therefore, there is a x10^-2 difference Formula is: pH=-log (base 10) [H+]


How much greater is the hydrogen ion concentration in tomatoes 4.2pH then in rainwater 6.2pH?

The hydrogen ion concentration in tomatoes at pH 4.2 is 100 times greater than in rainwater at pH 6.2. pH is a logarithmic scale, so each whole number change represents a tenfold difference in hydrogen ion concentration.


An acidic solution having a pH of 4 is how many times more acidic than a solution of pH9?

The pH scale represents a count of ions (hydrogen), or more accurately the "activity" of hydrogen ions. The pH is the negative of the logarithm (base 10) of the concentration in moles per liter. A solution with a pH of 4 is 100 times as concentrated as one with a pH of 6.


Relative to a pH of 6 a pH of 4 has what?

A pH of 4 is two units lower than a pH of 6, indicating a higher concentration of hydrogen ions. This means that the solution with a pH of 4 is more acidic compared to the solution with a pH of 6.


What is the H3O plus concentration in a solution that is 100 times less acidic than one having a pH of 3.22?

The H3O+ concentration in a solution with pH 3.22 = 1x10^-3.22 M or 6.03x10^-4 M.If a solution is 100 times less acidic, then the H3O+ concentration will be 6.03x10^-6 M.Put another way, 100 times less acidic will have a pH of 5.22 and H3O+ = 1x10^-5.22 = 6.03x10^-6M


What do you mean by 100 volume of hydrogen peroxide?

It means that the concentration of the peroxide is such that for every 1mL of hydrogen peroxide solution, 100mL of oxygen will be produced if fully reduced, catalyzed, exposed to light, heated or decomposed in any manner to the fullest extent. The fullest extent means the end point where every molecule of hydrogen peroxide releases one oxygen atom, and is converted into water.
