...of the degree of acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution. Originally defined as the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration in gram equivalents per liter. As such, a pH of 7 is neutral, a solution with a pH value of less than 7 is acid, and conversely, more... | |

...is a measure of the hydrogen or hydroxide ion concentration in gram equivalents per liter. pH value is expressed as the logarithm to the base 10 of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration. The scale of pH values is from zero to 14, with 7 as a neutral point. From 6 to zero denotes increasing... | |

...The value that represents the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution. By definition pH is the logarithm to the base 10 of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution. The pH scale ranges from 1 to 14; pure water has a pH of 7. The strongest acids have... | |
