acids, bases, and the pH scale

3.0

acidic

0714

Controls

pH measures hydrogen-ion concentration on a logarithmic scale. Each unit is a 10× change — pH 3 is ten times more acidic than pH 4.

Presets

Concentration 10⁻ⁿ M (n)

▶ Run in Python

Data Inspector

pH3.00

pOH11.00

[H⁺]1.0e-3

[OH⁻]1.0e-11

Governing equation

pH = - lo g_{10} [H^{+}] = - lo g_{10} (1.0 e - 3) = 3.00

Reading this result: Acidic: [H⁺] of 1.0e-3 M outnumbers OH⁻, and because pH + pOH always sums to 14, the pOH here is 11.0.

pH curve · equivalence point

Controls

Add base to an acid and track the pH. The steep jump marks the equivalence point, where moles of acid equal moles of base.

Presets

Base concentration (M)

Acid volume (mL)

Equivalence50.0 mL

Typestrong acid + strong base

pH at eq.7.0

Governing equation

C_{a} V_{a} = C_{b} V_{b} \Rightarrow V_{e q} = \frac{0.1 \times 50}{0.1} = 50.0 mL

Reading this result: Equivalence sits near 50.0 mL; because this is a strong acid with a strong base, the pH there is exactly 7 and the jump is nearly vertical.
