CHEMISTRY GLOSSARY
pH
pHpH is a convenient measure of the acid-base character of a solution, usually defined by
pH = -logc(H+)
where c(H+) is the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per litre. The more precise definition is in terms of activity rather than concentration.
A solution of pH 0 to 7 is acid, pH of 7 is neutral, pH over 7 to 14 is alkaline.
