Question

The hydroxideion Concentration of a solution is
1x16 m.khat is the PH of the solution​

Answer 1

Explanation:

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Explain the characterization of aqueous solutions as acidic, basic, or neutral

Express hydronium and hydroxide ion concentrations on the pH and pOH scales

Perform calculations relating pH and pOH

As discussed earlier, hydronium and hydroxide ions are present both in pure water and in all aqueous solutions, and their concentrations are inversely proportional as determined by the ion product of water (Kw). The concentrations of these ions in a solution are often critical determinants of the solution’s properties and the chemical behaviors of its other solutes, and specific vocabulary has been developed to describe these concentrations in relative terms. A solution is neutral if it contains equal concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions; acidic if it contains a greater concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions; and basic if it contains a lesser concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.
