pH is a measure of Hydrogen concentration

pH = -log10[H+], where [H+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions.

From this equation, we can see that an increase of hydrogen ions will lower the pH, and a decrease of hydrogen ions will raise the pH.

What scale measures the concentration of hydrogen ions?

The scale that chemists use to describe the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution is know as the pH Scale


How can I use PyMOL to add hydrogens to a molecular structure?

To add hydrogens to a molecular structure using PyMOL, you can use the "hadd" command followed by the selection of the atoms you want to add hydrogens to. This command will automatically add hydrogens to the selected atoms in the molecular structure.


What is a Calvin scale?

The Calvin scale is a temperature scale in physics defined as the kelvin temperature shifted by 273.15 units, with its zero point at absolute zero. It is no longer in common use compared to the Celsius or Fahrenheit scales.


Does the pH scale measure the concentration of hydroxide ions?

Yes, if you use a little bit of math. Take 14 minus your pH and you get the negative decadic logarithm of the hydroxide concentration.

Why do scientist use the pH scale?

Scientists use the pH scale to measure the acidity or basicity of a solution. This scale helps to quantify the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution, which is important in various fields such as chemistry, biology, and environmental science. By knowing the pH of a solution, scientists can understand how it may interact with other substances or organisms.

What is the name of the scale used to measure temperature?

There are several scales used.Celsius, or centigrade, is the most common, being associated with the SI system of measurement. But the actual official scale is Kelvin, essentially the Celsius scale shifted to begin at absolute zero rather than the freezing point of water.In the English system, still used in the US, the scales are the Fahrenheit scale and the Rankine scale (Fahrenheit shifted to start at absolute zero). Both Celsius and Fahrenheit use the term "degrees" as their intervals, but they are, confusingly, not the same size, and a conversion to Celsius is necessary to use Fahrenheit values in a metric calculation.

How do you measure the temperature on the sun?

Doppler shifted lines. by examining spectrographs of the sun, we can determine, via use of dopper shift, and examining the color of the sun, i.e. yellow, this correlates on a scale of light/heat as roughly 6000 on the Kelvin Scale. if the Sun were blue, we would be able to deduce that the sun was roughly 7500 K. For further info, look up the Kelvin Scale.


Why do we use the PH scale instead of just stating the concentration?

The pH scale provides a more convenient way to express the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution using a logarithmic scale that covers a wide range of values. It allows us to easily compare the acidity or basicity of different substances without having to work with large concentration numbers.
