What is p in pH?

pH is the scientific abbreviation for power of Hydrogen.p=power H=hydrogen. The "p" in pH comes from the notation of the probability of finding a Mole of H+ ions in a given amount of solution which is written as P(H+)=Moles of H+ per litre. Unfortunately the Probability expressed in numbers is not the ideal way to describe and compare things. The best way to do this is to have a scale and have everything fit between its extreemes. Thus the pH scale was devised where the negative log of the concentration of H+ ions gives a scale from 0 to 14. This does not mean that the definition of "p" in "pH" changed but it only says that the old name (probability of H+) is now being used to refer to the the "pH scale".


What does pH indicator?

p = -log H= concentration of hydrogen in solution (H+) therefore, pH= -log [H+] or [H+] = 10-pH


What is the abbreviation of PH?

pH is the negative logarithm of the activity of the hydrogen ion in a water solution; it is used to evaluate the acidity/alkalinity of a solution.The letter H is the symbol of hydrogen; p is very probable from power.


Who invented the pH TABLE?

The concept of pH was introduced by Danish chemist Søren Peder Lauritz Sørensen in 1909. The pH scale as we know it today was developed by Arnold Orville Beckman in 1934. However, the pH table or grid used to correlate pH with various substances does not have a single inventor, as it is simply a tool built on the concept of pH.


What do the initials pH stand for?

The concept of pH was first introduced by Danish chemist S L P Sorensen in 1909. pH is claimed to have come from pondus hydrogenii, potentia hydrogeni (Latin) potentiel hydrogene (French) and potential of hydrogen (English). it stand for POTENTIAL HYDROGEN.

Why is there a big H in pH?

The "H" stands for hydrogen, just like the "OH" in pOH refers to the ion hydroxide. The first letter of all atomic symbols is capitalized. Perhaps an obvious follow-up question might be, "Why is there a small p in pH?". I would suspect this is so that people did not think the P stood for phosphorus.


PH of an acid?

First of all it is 'pH' , NOT 'PH'. Acidic pH ranges from zero(0) to 6.99. pH = 7 is neutrality ( water). pH values may be quoted to 2(two) decimal places. 'pH' is the symbolic representeation of; - 'p' ; the negative logarithm to base '10'. 'H' ; the hydrogen ion concentration.
