It extends beyond those values, but is not as relevant; e.g. the pH of the dilute HC/ and H,SO, found on the laboratory shelves is -0.3 and -0.6 respectively. o pH SCALE Despite what some people think, the pH scale is not restricted to between 0 and 14. It extends beyond those values, but is not as relevant; e.g. the pH of the dilute HC/ and H,SO, found on the laboratory shelves is -0.3 and -0.6 respectively. Weak acids have higher pH values than stronger ones of the same concentration. Ethanoic acid CH,COOH has a larger pH than hydrochloric acid HC/ of the same concentration. Indicator MEASURING pH Add a few drops of universal (full-range) indicator to the solution and compare the colour against a chart. The colour you “see” depends not only on how many drops of indicator you add but also on your perception of colour. PH meters MEASURING pH Electrical/electronic devices which measure the conductivity of the solution. Having calibrated the apparatus against a solution of known pH, you place the probe in any solution and read off the pH value on a scale or digital read-out.

STRONG ACIDS COMPLETELY dissociate (split up) into ions e.g. sulphuric, hydrochloric, nitric WEAK ACIDS PARTIALLY dissociate (split up) into ions e.g. ethanoic, citric, carbonic This means that if you take similar concentrations of HC/ and CH,COOH, the concentration of H* ions in the solution of CH,COOH will be less as only a few of its molecules will have split up into ions. Its pH will consequently be higher. Reactions ACIDS The hydrogen ions produced by acids can be replaced by other positive ions (metal ions or ammonium ions) to produce salts. This occurs when dilute acids react with metals, oxides of metals, hydroxides of metals, carbonates, hydrogencarbonates and ammonia. o ACIDS Reactions The hydrogen ions produced by acids can be replaced by other positive ions (metal ions or ammonium ions) to produce salts.
