Number of Hydrogen ions (H+) determine acidity or alkalinity
•Number of Hydrogen ions (H+) in water = 0.0000001 mol/L
•Logarithm of H+Concentration
•Log (0.0000001) = log (10-7) = -7
•Negative Logarithm of H+Concentration
•-[Log (0.0000001)] = -log (10-7) = -(-7) = 7

- 13. Calibration of pH meter The measuring electrode and reference electrode, when put in a zero solution (7.0 pH buffer) provides a zero mV output. Factors causing differences or changes in potential •Contamination of the reference electrolyte solution. •Electrolyte evaporation/depletion •Chemical attack of the silver/silver chloride wire. •Junction potential. •Aging of the measuring electrode.
