Study Notes

pH Definition and Significance

The 'H' in pH refers to Hydrogen ions (H+).
The 'p' in pH stands for the power of Hydrogen ions (H+).

pH Scale and Ion Concentration

A pH value of 2 indicates a highly acidic solution.
A pH value of 12 indicates a highly basic solution.
A pH value of 13 indicates an extremely basic solution.
At pH 7, the H+ ions and negatively charged Hydroxide ions (OH-) are balanced out completely.
At a low pH value, there are a lot of H+ ions in the water, indicating acidity.
At a high pH value, there are a lot of OH- ions in the water, indicating basicity.

pH Value Comparison

A pH value of 3 is more acidic than a pH value of 5, with a 10-fold difference in H+ ion concentration.
The significance of a pH value of 3 compared to a pH value of 4 is that it indicates a 10-fold difference in H+ ion concentration.
The significance of a pH value of 2 compared to a pH value of 4 is that it indicates a 100-fold difference in H+ ion concentration.

Ion Charges and pH

The Hydrogen ion (H+) has a positive charge.
The term 'H+' represents the positively charged Hydrogen ion in the context of pH.
