The pH is a measure of the concentration of the hydrogen ion (H+) in water. Highly acidic water has a very high H+ concentration, while basic water has very low H+ concentrations. The pH scale is a logarithmic scale, such that a difference of one pH unit means a 10-fold difference in H+ concentration. The mathematical relationship between pH and H+ concentration ([H+]) is
pH = –log [H+] OR [H+] = 10-pH where [H+] is in moles per liter.
Use a scientific calculator to calculate [H+] for the following pH values:
7 (a neutral solution)
5.6 (unpolluted rainwater)
3.7 (first acid rain sample in North America)
How many times higher is the concentration of H+ in the Hubbard Brook sample than in unpolluted rainwater?
7 (a neutral solution)
10-7= 0.0000001 moles per liter
5.6 (unpolluted rainwater)
10-5.6 = 0.0000025 moles per liter
3.7 (first acid rain sample in North America)
10-3.7 = 0.00020 moles per liter
The concentration of H+ in the Hubbard Brook sample is 0.00020/0.0000025, which is 80 times higher than the H+ concentration in unpolluted rainwater. (Plato)

45 points how are people today being protected from tsunamis? earthquake data is analyzed to detemrine if a tsunami is likely, and if so, warnings are sent out. areas in tsunami risk zones are no longer heavily populated. radar is used to measure wave heights regularly. meteorologists study the winds to determine if wave heights will be large.
