PH stands for "Potential Hydrogen" and the PH scale ranges from 0-14. PH refers to the ability to attract hydrogen ions.
The PH of a solution either indicates acidity of the solution or alkalinity of the solution. A solution which has PH 7 above is a base solution where a solution with PH less than 7 is an acidic solution.
Compound are formed by two or more elements chemically combined. For example: H^2O is the water formula, this is a compound because you two elements which are Hydrogen and Oxygen and together they form a compound. The (^2) is the amount of atoms the formula has, in this case Hydrogen has two atoms and Oxygen is neutral.
2H2+O2----->2H2O. I hope this helps
We observe that heat capacity of salted water we will find that it is less than pure water. We now that it takes less energy to increase the temperature of the salt water 1°C than pure water. Which means that the salted water heats up faster and eventually reaches to its boiling point first.
hope it helps
