Best Answer

That really depends upon the type of tea you have brewed. There are a number of interesting compounds present in tea, the concentration of which vary with type, variety and blend. The nature of the water you brew the tea with will also have a profound effect on the extraction of these compounds. The cup of tea I have in front of me has a pH of 6.2.

Given that pH = -log10 [H30+], the hydronium ion content of this is 6.31 x 10^-7 mol dm-3

Hope that helps.

What does the hydronium ion concentration measure for a substance?

The hydronium ion concentration measures how acidic a substance is. A high hydronium ion concentration means the substance is acidic. A low hydronium ion concentration means the substance is basic. You may be more familiar thinking of it as the pH scale. At pH = 7 [H3O]+ = 10-7 and [OH]- = 10-7
