Concept of the pH Scale The pH Scale :A litmus solution or litmus paper can be used to determine whether a given solution is acidic or basic. But suppose you have two acidic solutions containing different amounts of acids in them. How can you say which solution is more acidic? Similar is the case with the basic solutions. This problem is solved by using a scale known as … [Read more...] about Concept of the pH Scale

How can we measure the strength of acids and alkalis?
How can we measure the strength of acids and alkalis?An acid produces hydrogen ions in aqueous solution. The acidity of a solution is a measure of the concentration of the hydrogen ions in the solution.A base produces hydroxide ions in aqueous solution. The alkalinity of a solution is a measure of the concentration of the hydroxide ions in the … [Read more...] about How can we measure the strength of acids and alkalis?
