1 pH Scale

2 Ion product constant for water K w H 2 O  H + + OH - K w = [H + ] [OH - ] = 1.0 X 10 -14 mol/L Since [H + ] = [OH - ] for water Then each equals 1.0 X 10 -7 M Water is neutral (neither acid or base)

3 The [H + ] or [OH - ] can be calculated if one is known…. Example: if [H + ] = 1.0 X 10 -5 Then, [OH - ] = 1.0 X 10 -9 because [H + ] [OH - ] must = 1.0 X 10 -14

4 If the [H + ] is larger than the [OH - ] then the solution is acid If the [OH - ] is larger than the [H + ], then the solution is basic

5 pH Concept that describes how acidic or how basic a solution is… pH = -log [H + ] Defined in terms of H + pH 7 base

6 pH scale 0 147 [H + ] = [OH - ] 10 -7 = 10 -7 [H + ] > 1.0 X 10 -7 [OH - ] > 1.0 X 10 -7 acidicbasic
