The hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is indicated by its<br> ___ value.
rosijanka [135]

The hydrogen ion concentration of a solution is indicated by its <u>pH </u>value.

Explanation:

  • A measure of acidity or alkalinity of water soluble substances (pH stands for 'potential of Hydrogen'). A pH value is a number from 1 to 14, with 7 as the middle point.
  • Under normal circumstances this means that the concentration of hydrogen ions in acidic solution can be taken to be equal to the concentration of the acid.
  • The pH is then equal to minus the logarithm of the concentration value.
  • Values below 7 indicate acidity which increases as the number decreases, 1 being the most acidic.
  • The pH of a solution is a measure of hydrogen ion concentration, which in turn is a measure of its acidity.
  • Pure water dissociates slightly into equal concentrations of hydrogen and hydroxyl (OH−) ions. For a neutral solution, [H+] is 10−7, or pH = 7.
