The concentration of hydrogen ion in acid depends on the :-

 Molarity (concentration) of the acid


The higher the molarity of an acid, the higher the concentration (or
molarity) of the hydrogen ions in the acid
 Strength of the acid
Strong acid has higher concentration of hydrogen ions compare with weak
acid of same concentration and same basicity
 Basicity of the acid
The concentration of hydrogen ions of a diprotic acid is higher than the
monoprotic acid and lower than the triprotic acid

 A standard solution is a solution in which its concentration is known.


 The steps taken in preparing a standard solution are :-
- Determine the voloume and concentration that you want to prepare.
- Calculate the mass of solute needed to give the required volume and
concentration.
- Weigh the solute
- Dissolve the solute completely dissolved in distilled water and then
transfer it to a volumetric flask partially filled with distilled water.
- Add distilled water to the calibration mark of the volumetric flask.
- Invert the flask and shake it to make sure thorough mixing.

 Dilution is a process of adding water to the standard solution lowered the


concentration of the solution.
 In dilution of solution, we should take note that mole of solute before
dilution is equal to the mole of solute after dilution.
 Number of mol of solute before dilution = Number of mole of solute after
dilution
 M1 = Molarity before dilution
 M2 = Molarity after dilution
 V1 = Volume before dilution
 V2 = Volume after dilution

 A salt is an ionic compound formed when the hydrogen of an acid is partly or


completely replaced by a metal ion or ammonium ion.
 All salts are chemically and electrically neutral.

 Diagram above shows that when the hydrogen ion in nitric acid is replaced by
Na+, Ca2+, NH4+ or Al3+ ions, salts are formed.
 There are 4 types of salt that you need to know :-
- Nitrate
- Chloride
- Sulphate
- Carbonate
