Many substances have a place in the pH scale. a pH is measured from 0 (The most acidic) to 14 (The most basic). Water, for example, has a pH of 7 (Neutral). Hydrocloric acid has a pH of 0 and drain cleaners have a pH of 14. Both are very corrosive and should never be in contact of your skin.

∙ 13y agopH stands for "power of hydrogen" and is used to express the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH = pi-hydronium. water spontaneously decomposes into pi-hydronium (acidic) and hydroxyl (basic) ions. adding an acid or base shifts this decomposition balance. The more acid added the more pi-hydronium in solution, the more base added the less pi-hydronium in solution. The higher the pi-hydronium, the lower the pH reading (7 is neutral, full scale is 1 to 14).

What is the most acidic pH 10 pH 3 pH 2 pH 6 pH 8 pH 12 pH 1 pH 75?
PH 75 is the most acid.
How much stronger is pH 9 than pH 4?
pH 9 - pH 4 = pH 5 It is stronger by 5 pH.
Which is the most acidic pH 2 pH 5 pH 7 or pH 11?
Most acidic is substance of pH of 2, then of pH of 5 and the substance of pH 7 is neutral and the substance of pH 11 is basic
What is the most acidic pH 10 pH 3 pH 2 pH 6 pH 8 pH 12 pH 1 pH 7.5?
The lower the pH, the more acidic the solution is. Remember, pH 7.0 is H2O. As pH decreases below 7, the solution's acidity increases. As pH increase above 7, the basicity of the solution increases. Hence, in the choices you provided, pH 1.0 is most acidic.
Which ranges on the pH scale are acidic basic and neutral?
pH 0 < acidic < pH 7 neutral = pH 7 pH 7 < basic < pH 14
What is the most acidic pH 10 pH 3 pH 2 pH 6 pH 8 pH 12 pH 1 pH 75?
PH 75 is the most acid.
What solutions is the weakest acid pH of 2.4 pH of 5.2 pH of 6.4 pH of 8.6 or pH of 10.1?
pH=6,4
How much stronger is pH 9 than pH 4?
pH 9 - pH 4 = pH 5 It is stronger by 5 pH.
Do you use pH or PH?
neither pH
Which is the most acidic pH 2 pH 5 pH 7 or pH 11?
Most acidic is substance of pH of 2, then of pH of 5 and the substance of pH 7 is neutral and the substance of pH 11 is basic
What is the most acidic pH 10 pH 3 pH 2 pH 6 pH 8 pH 12 pH 1 pH 7.5?

How do we find out the pH?
The pH is determined with a pH-meter.
Which ranges on the pH scale are acidic basic and neutral?
pH 0 < acidic < pH 7 neutral = pH 7 pH 7 < basic < pH 14
Mixed equal volumes of HCl one with pH 4.0 and the other pH 6.0 what is the final pH?
Most probably PH 12, that is if you add 8+4
What pH values indicates a solution with the highest concentration of hydrogen ions pH equals 1 or pH equals 2 or Ph equals 7or pH equals 14?
pH = 14 is basic pH = 7 is neutral pH - 1 and 2 are acidic; pH = 1 is more acidic than pH = 2 Therefore a solution at pH 1 has higher concentration of H+ than at pH 14
What are 3 methods to measure pH?
pH indicator, pH paper, and a pH meter. You can find them on this page http://onsager.bd.psu.edu/halmi/chem3pHS05.pdf
What is the pH of 3M KCl solution?
pH = -log(Concentration)pH = -log(3)pH = -(0.477121255)pH = -0.477121255
