In chemistry the negative of the decimal logarithm, the decimal cologarithm, is indicated by the letter p. [63] For instance, pH is the decimal cologarithm of the activity of hydronium ions (the form hydrogen ions H + take in water). [64] The activity of hydronium ions in neutral water is 10 −7 mol·L −1, hence a pH of 7. Vinegar typically ...
For example, the decimal triplet 4, 8, 16 would be represented by the hex digits 04, 08, 10, forming the hex triplet 040810. The number of colors that can be represented by this system is 256 3, 16 6, or 2 24 = 16,777,216.

Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.
