Question 198395: Find the pH of a substance of your choice that is alkaline (basic). Using this pH, show how to find the hydrogen ion concentration, [H+], of the substance using the formula. Discuss the meaning of pH and [H+], the pH scale and why your chosen substance is alkaline. Use scientific notation or enough decimal places so that your answer has at least 3 place values. Answer by jsmallt9(3758) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You'll have to measure your own pH. But the relationship between pH and the concentration of H+ ions is pretty straightforward.
Using p for pH and h for H ion concentration the relationship is:
In exponential form this is:
