How do you calculate the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution with a pH of 4.3?

$$pH = -log([H+])$$

 

According to logarithmic identities, if we raise both sides to the power of the logarithmic base, we can eliminate the log. To do this, we first divide both sides by -1:

 

$$-pH = log([H+])$$

 

Then, we raise both sides to the power of 10, thus eliminating the logarithm. Leaving us with:

 

$$10^-^p^H = [H^+]$$

 

Hope this helps.

Well, you’ve been a way for two months. Did you seek treatment for your CDD? Remember, it takes two months just for the therapists to convince you that you have it.

 

Anyway, do you have more of the special mixture of NaClO3 that produces ozone? I’m constantly in hostile environments and I’ve used most of the last batch.

Can't you ever be polite Nauseated.  

Don't let him worry you Sorasyn, Nauseated calls himself Nauseated because he is always Nauseating!

You are right Melody, this was kind of rude. Here’s a rephrase.

 

Sorasyn, sir, could I please have more of the special mixture of NaClO3 that produces ozone? I’m constantly in hostile environments and I’ve used most of the last batch. Thank you.

 

BTW I call myself Nauseated because I’m nauseated by CDD and related disorders in others. I may be nauseating to others because nausea is sympathetically induced when one is exposed to another who is experiencing the effect. The rate is about the same as a yawn.

Still got a bee in our bonnet about an incorrect answer I gave back in December, have we? As flattering as it is that you've held on for so long, I'll have to ask you to get over it. Mistakes happen; I'm quite sure that you, yourself, are no angel.

 

Narcissists are an endearing breed. 

 

@Melody : Thank you, but I don't spend much time worrying about what other people have to say.

No, not at all. Your modified sodium chlorate keeps the bees out of my bonnet very well. That was one of the reasons I wanted more of it.

I’ve held on because it is such an amazing discovery! Truely worthy of a revisit. It’s amazing how accidental chemical discoveries can change the world! I’m sure you will do something new, soon. Promoting the new product will be at the top of the list. The old ones fade, but never really end. At least not until the new and improved version is introduced.

 

I'm quite sure that you, yourself, are no angel.

 

My parole officer thinks I am an angel. Of course, the baseline for comparison isn’t exactly in the stratosphere. My GF thinks of me as an angel . . .though she prefaces it with “fallen” most of the time. Even so, it’s a title I carry with pride.

 

Narcissists are an endearing breed

 

I had to lookup “Narcissists” Yep, it fits. I must have a special version of that because it usually isn’t conducive for endearment. I saw several other psychological syndromes that often apply too. These mainly manifest when the CDD nausea flares.

 

Well, until your next great discovery, Sorasyn, take care.
