Question

There are _ times less _ ions in solution with a pH 3 than in a solution with a pH6.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction

In a chemical reaction, a solution can be acidic or basic which depends on the concentration of hydrogen ions. The pH is defined as the negative log₁₀of the hydrogen ion concentration expressed in mol/L. The pH of any solution can be measured using a pH scale ranging between 0 -14 with 7 as neutral. The pH of less than 7 indicate acidity, whereas a pH of greater than 7 indicates a base. It is a measure of the relative amount of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in the water and is reported in "logarithmic units".
