pH and Its Measurement

Chemistry ⇒ Acids, Bases, and Salts

pH and Its Measurement starts at 9 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in pH and Its Measurement. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 9
A solution has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 × 10-4 mol/L. What is its pH?
A solution has a pH of 1. Is it a strong acid, weak acid, strong base, or weak base?
A solution has a pH of 3. Is it acidic, basic, or neutral?
A solution has a pH of 5. What is its hydrogen ion concentration? (Give your answer in scientific notation.)
A student adds a few drops of universal indicator to a solution and observes a green color. What is the approximate pH of the solution?
A student measures the pH of rainwater and finds it to be 5.6. Is the rainwater acidic, basic, or neutral?
