pH Calculator

Calculate pH and pOH from the concentration of a strong acid or base.

About the "pH Calculator" Calculator

pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. It's one of the most important concepts in chemistry, with applications ranging from biology to materials science.

This tool allows you to quickly calculate the pH and pOH for solutions of strong acids or strong bases, where complete dissociation is assumed. Simply enter the concentration of your solution and specify whether it is an acid or a base.

pH Scale:

  • pH < 7: Acidic solution
  • pH = 7: Neutral solution
  • pH > 7: Basic (or alkaline) solution

Formula Used

pH=log10[H+]pH = -log_{10}[H^+]
  • [H⁺]=Concentration of hydronium ions (mol/L)
