Litmus Paper- tells you if you have an acid or a base

What is the pH scale and what am I really measuring? A value to express the acidity of a solution

(power of hydrogen)

Ranges from 0-14 0-6 Acidic 7 Neutral8-14 Basic

Measures the hydronium ions in a solutionThe more hydronium ion the more acidic

Each step on pH scale represents a factor of 10.

pH 5 vs. pH 6 (10X more acidic)pH 3 vs. pH 5 (100X different)

pH 8 vs. pH 13 (100,000X different)

acidic neutral basic[H+] = [OH-]

Calculating the pH Since pH is dependent on the

concentration of hydronium ions the formula for calculating pH is the following:

pH = -log[H3O+]

Example: Calculate pH if [H3O+] = 5.00 x 10-3M

Calculating Concentration of the Acids or Base from pH

[H3O+] = 10 –pH

EXAMPLE: pickle juice has a pH of 3.2 What is the hydronium ion concentration?

[H3O+] = 10 –3.2

[H3O+] = 6.3 x 10 -4 M
