Best Answer

If acid rain has lowered the pH of a particular lake from pH 7.0 to pH 4.0, the hydrogen ion concentration of this lake has been increased by a factor of 1000. This is because each whole unit on the pH scale represents a 10-fold change in acidity and basicity.

In a way, p stands for -log.

So, pH is simply -log[H+]

Hence by math, the hydrogen ion concentration is 10(-pH)

The [H+]will be 10-4 moldm-3

Have a nice day.

How does the pOH differ from pH?

pOH happens to be the negative log of hydroxide ion' s concentration while pH is the negative log of hydrogen ion's concentration. pH is used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.


How does the POH scale form PH scale?

pH + pOH = 14 pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration, [H+] pOH is a measure of the hydroxide ion concentration, [OH-] pH = -log10[H+] pOH = -log10[OH-]
