Our Goals for todayTo state the uses of pH scaleTo relate pH value with acidic or alkaline properties of a substancesTo relate the concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions with pH valuesTo relate strong or weak acids/alkalis with the degree of ionisationTo conceptualise qualitatively strong and weak acids/alkalis.
-
What is the pH scale?The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a solution is.
-
The pH scaleThe pH scale is the concentration of hydrogen ions in a given substance.
-
Identifying Acids and BasesAcids have a pH from 0-7Lower pH value indicates a stronger acid.The lower the pH value, the higher concentration of H ions
-
Cont.Bases have a pH from 7-14Higher pH value indicates a stronger base.The higher the pH value, the higher the concentration of OH ions.
-
Did we Miss something??What happens when the pH of a substance is 7?
Ans: A pH level of 7 indicates a Neutral Substance i.e: Water!

Universal Indicators ColorsUniversal Indicator is a mixture of different indicators which covers the full range of pH values
-
How to measure the pH value?take measurements and record the results
[ H + ] = 10For bases
[ H + ] = 3For acids
-
WHEN THE CONCENTRATION OF HYDROGEN IONS [H+] IN SOLUTION INCREASE SO THE pH VALUES ARE LOWER WHEN THE CONCENTRATION OF HYDROXIDE IONS [OH+] IN SOLUTION INCREASE SO THE pH VALUES ARE INCREASES

Concentration of acids and bases with pH values
-
Strong and Weak AcidsDepends on degree of ionisation :Complete dissociation/ ionization in water produces high concentration of H ionsPartial dissociation / ionisation in water produces low concentration of H ionsHA (aq) H+ (aq) (high) + A-(aq) HA (aq) H+ (aq) () + A-(aq)
