Periodic Table of Elements

pH

The letters pH stand for "power of hydrogen".
pH of a solution is defined as the negative logarithm to base 10 of the hydrogen ion activity, aH+.
pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

pH = -log10 H+
pH = log10 1 H+
pOH can be defined as pOH = -log10 OH-

pH Scale

The pH scale was introduced S.P.L. Sorenson.
pH scale is used to express the acidity of only dilute solutions.
The strength of an acid or base is measured on a scale called the pH scale, which goes from 0 to 14 in general usage.
A liquid with a pH of 7 is neutral.
A liquid with a pH lower than 7 is an acid.
A liquid with a pH higher than 7 is a base.
For a strong acid pH value is very low.
For a strong base pH value is very high.
Strong acids almost completely break apart in water to form H+ and A- ions. This process is known as dissociation.
Because strong acids completely dissociate in water, the concentration of H+ solution is same as the concentration of the acid initially started with.
Weak acids are acids that only dissociate to a small degree in water.

If the aqueous solution of an acid is diluted with water, its pH value increases. pH after dilution = initial pH + log V2 V1
where:
V1 is the initial volume of the solution, V2 is the volume of the solution after dilution.

If the aqueous solution of an base is diluted with water, its pH value decreases. pH after dilution = initial pH - log V2 V1
where:
V1 is the initial volume of the solution, V2 is the volume of the solution after dilution.

If two strong acids or bases with different concentrations are mixed, resultant normality of the mixture N = N1V1+N2V2 V1+V2

If two strong acids or bases with different concentrations are mixed, resultant molarity of the mixture M = M1V1+M2V2 V1+V2

Neutralisation

If number of equivalents of acid is equal to the number of equivalents of base, the resulting solution will be neutral in nature NAVA = NBVB
