Hi Friends !!
Here is ur Answer !!
Answer:
The pH of a solution is defined as the negative logarithm of its hydrogen ion (H+) concentration. For example, If the concentration of H+ ion is 10^(-7),
then the pH of the solution = -log (10)^(-7) = 7.
Therefore, as the Hydrogen Ion concentration increases, pH value decreases & as the Hydrogen Ion concentration decreases, pH value increases
The pH of a solution is a measure of the hydronium ion (H3O+) concentration on a logarithmic scale. The pH scale range is 0-14 from acidic to basic, respectively. The pH of a neutral compound, such as pure water at room temperature, is 7. The concentration of hydronium ions is related to the concentration of hydroxide ions by the dissociation of water:
Explanation:
pH is biologically important because it affects the structure and activity of macromolecules. pH is important in homeostatic processes. For example, most animals breathe not because they lack oxygen, but because CO2 buildup in the blood increases the blood acidity beyond normal levels.
