Does the concentration of an acid or base refer to the presence of H3O plus ions in solution?

An acid solution is a solution that contains more hydronium (H3O+) ions than hydroxide (OH-) ions. On the other hand, the reverse is true for a basic solution. Acidic solutions will have a pH less than 7 whereas basic solutions will have a pH greater than 7 by the equation pH=-log[H3O+].

∙ 7y agoThe concentration of an acid or base in solution is usually quoted in moles of the individual substance per litre of solution (molarity). You are probably thinking of pH, which is an expression involving the concentration of hydrated hydrogen ions, more often written as H+(aq) than H3O+ .pH = - log10[H+(aq)]

How do you standardize a solution of NaOH and what reagents to be used?
If you have a standard solution of an acid, like hydrochloric or sulfuric, you can perform a titration in the presence of phenolphtalein or methyl orange and calculate the solution's normality or, you can weigh a sample of a strong solid acid ( orthoiperiodic acid or even oxalic acid), titrate the acid with the hydroxide solution, again in the presence of phenolphtalein or methyl orange and calculate the concentration of NaOH. If you want to have a solution with an exact concentration, let's say 1 molar, and the actual concentration is 1,33 molar, you simply calculate how much water you need to ad in a specific quantity of solution, to dilute it to exactly 1 molar.
Is a solution of ph2 a weak acid?
Not necessarily. A solution that has a pH of 2 can have a low concentration of a strong acid or a relatively high concentration of a weak acid.
What does the PH solution of a acid and base depend on?
the H+ concentration and the OH- concentration
If you have a solution of a strong acid and a solution of a weak acid of equal concentration and volume then what happens?
The weak acid becomes in unionized form
How much pH is in strong acid?
pH is not a measure of how strong an acid is. pH is a measure of the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in a given solution.
Is dilute related to acid?
Not necessarily. When a dilute substance is one that has a low concentration in a given solution. It could refer to any dissolved substance which may or may not be an acid. If a solution is acidic, then the acidity will depend on both the concentration and the strength of the acid.
