Why is the pH scale 0 to 14?
Why is the pH scale 0 to 14? One far end is not more than 1M of hydrogen ions, which results in a pH value of not more than 0. While on the other end is not more than 1M of hydroxide ions which results in a pH value of not more than 14. The pH value goes out of the 0-14 range when the concentration of the solution exceeds 1M. What pH scale has a pH of 14? A solution of a strong acid, such as hydrochloric acid, at concentration 1 mol dm−3 has a pH of 0. A...
