Strong Acid pH Calculation

To calculate the pH of a strong acid solution, directly use the acid's concentration as the hydrogen ion concentration ([H+]). Then, plug this value into the pH equation: pH = -log[H+].

Strong Base pH Calculation

To determine the pH of a strong base solution, calculate the hydroxide ion concentration ([OH-]) first. Then, use the Kw expression (Kw = [H+][OH-]) to find the hydrogen ion concentration ([H+]). Finally, calculate pH using the equation pH = -log[H+].
