Ionic Equilibrium

Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.

Arrhenius Acid

Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.

How to write the methodology? I have a practical of the MEASUREMENT USING PH METER, I don't know how to write the methodology. Here is the introduction: A pH meter is an electronic device mainly used for qualitative measurement, for thedetermination of acid and the basic value of a solution. Generally, it measures thehydrogen ion concentration/activity [H+] in a solution. It is denoted as:pH = - log10 [H+]In a pure water solution, the concentration of [H+] and [OH-] ions, respectively, rangefrom 1.0 x 10-1 M to 1.0 x 10-14 M. When [H+] is equal to [OH-] as when pure waterdissociates, the hydrogen ion concentration of pure water is equal to 1.0 x 10-7 M orpH = 7.00, defined as a neutral solution at 25°C, to be of temperaturedependent/endothermic dissociation.[H+] = [OH-] = 1.0 x 10-7 MWhen an ionic or polar substance is dissolved in water, it may change the relativenumbers of H+ and OH-. The higher the pH number, the lower the hydrogen ion concentration, and vice versa. Solution with an…
