| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| In an aqueous solution, the product of the concentration of hydrogen ions and the concentration of hydroxide ions is always equal to 1.0 × 10^([...]) M. | In an aqueous solution, the product of the concentration of hydrogen ions and the concentration of hydroxide ions is always equal to 1.0 × 10^(-14) M. |
| the concentrations of H+ ions and OH- ions are each is 1 × 10^([...]) M in a neutral solution. | the concentrations of H+ ions and OH- ions are each is 1 × 10^(-7) M in a neutral solution. |
| If the concentration of H+ is then [...] than 1 × 10^(-7) M, the solution is acidic. | If the concentration of H+ is then greater than 1 × 10^(-7) M, the solution is acidic. |
| If the concentration of H+ is then [...] than 1 × 10^(-7) M, the solution is basic. | If the concentration of H+ is then less than 1 × 10^(-7) M, the solution is basic. |
| another word for 'basic' (as opposed to acidic) is '[...]'. | another word for 'basic' (as opposed to acidic) is 'alkaline'. |
| The pH of a solution is based on a measurement of the concentration of [...] ions. | The pH of a solution is based on a measurement of the concentration of hydrogen ions. |
| pH is the negative [... of the concentration of hydrogen ions, [H+]. | pH is the negative log of the concentration of hydrogen ions, [H+]. |
| Square brackets around something in chemistry mean 'the [...] of whatever is in the square brackets'. | Square brackets around something in chemistry mean 'the concentration of whatever is in the square brackets'. |
| [H+] is the way we write the *[...]* of hydrogen ions H+. | [H+] is the way we write the *concentration* of hydrogen ions H+. |
| pH = [mathematical formula] | pH = –log[H+] |
| Neutral solutions have a pH of [...]. | Neutral solutions have a pH of 7. |
| In "PEE-EYTCH", the letter P is [...]-case and the H is [...]-case. | In "PEE-EYTCH", the letter P is lower-case and the H is upper-case. |
| Acidic solutions have a pH [...] than 7 | Acidic solutions have a pH lower than 7 |
| Basic solutions have a pH [...] than 7 | Basic solutions have a pH higher than 7 |
