pH is roughly minus log (molar concentration of hydrogen ions)
so pH=7 means molar concentration = 10^-7 M
This means that a pH of 0 corresponds to 1 mole per litre of hydrogen ions and that yes the pH can go negative.
e.g. 2 moles per liter of hydrogen ions means pH= -0.3
but clearly there is a limit to how many hydrogen ions you can fit in a liter.
10M HCl has a pH of -1
The most negative pH for a real solution that I could find is -3.6
A pH value less than 7.0.
A K value much less than 1 indicates that the reaction strongly favors the reactants at equilibrium. This could suggest a solution where the products are formed at a slower rate compared to the reactants or one in which the reactants are more stable than the products.
The pH value can tell you whether a solution is acidic or basic. A pH value less than 7 indicates acidity, while a pH value greater than 7 indicates alkalinity. A pH of 7 is considered neutral.
An acid solution typically has a pH less than 7, contains H+ ions, and can donate a proton to a base.
The definition of acidic is having a pH less than 7.
A Weakly Acidic Solution
A weakly acidic solution.
Yes.
It depends upon whether the inequality is strictly less than (<), or if it is less than or could be equal (≤). For example: if x < 6, x can have any value less than 6, but cannot have the value 6; but if x ≤ 6, x can have any value less than 6, but can also have the value 6. Or put another way, x = 6 is NOT a solution of x < 6, but IS a solution to x ≤ 6.
Sure, after all it is a logarithmic scale.

One possible inequality that has x = 0.8 as a solution is x ≤ 0.8. This means that any value of x that is less than or equal to 0.8 will satisfy the inequality.
A K value much less than 1 indicates that the reaction strongly favors the reactants at equilibrium. This could suggest a solution where the products are formed at a slower rate compared to the reactants or one in which the reactants are more stable than the products.
If you look at the definition of the sine function in a triangle, you'll discover that the maximum possible value of the sine function is ' 1 ' and the minimum possible value is ' -1 '. There's no angle that can have a sine greater than ' 1 ' or less than ' -1 '. So the absolute value of the sine of anything is always ' 1 ' or less.
No. You can't have less than none of any chemical.
Solution saturation compares the amount of solute in a solution to the maximum amount that can be dissolved at a given temperature. It determines if a solution is saturated (holding the maximum amount of solute), unsaturated (holding less solute than possible), or supersaturated (holding more solute than normally possible).
