pH • 1909 Soren Sorensen (Danish) pH=-log[H+] What is the pH of pure water?
Ex 1: Find the pH for [H+]=10-3M • Answer: pH=3
Ex 2: Find the pH for [H+]=5x10-3M • Answer: pH=2.3
Finding [H+] from pH • [H+]= 10-pH
Ex 3: Find the [H+] for pH=5 • Answer: [H+] = 10-5 M
Ex 4: Find the [H+] for pH=5.8 • [H+]= 10-pH • Answer: [H+] = 1.6x10-6 M
pOH pH=-log[H+] pH + pOH=14
