  2. Ammonia solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution

    In aqueous solution, ammonia deprotonates a small fraction of the water to give ammonium and hydroxide according to the following equilibrium: . NH 3 + H 2 O ⇌ NH + 4 + OH −.. In a 1 M ammonia solution, about 0.42% of the ammonia is converted to ammonium, equivalent to pH = 11.63 because [NH +

  3. Ammonium sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_sulfate

    Heating at higher temperatures results in decomposition into ammonia, nitrogen, sulfur dioxide, and water. [17] As a salt of a strong acid (H 2 SO 4) and weak base (NH 3), its solution is acidic; the pH of 0.1 M solution is 5.5. In aqueous solution the reactions are those of NH + 4 and SO 2−

  4. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    By accounting for the self-ionization of water, the true pH of the solution can be calculated. For example, a 5×10 −8 M solution of HCl would have a pH of 6.89 when treated as a mixture of HCl and water. The self-ionization equilibrium of solutions of sodium hydroxide at higher concentrations must also be considered.

  5. Ammonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia

    Ammonia readily dissolves in water. In an aqueous solution, it can be expelled by boiling. The aqueous solution of ammonia is basic, and may be described as aqueous ammonia or ammonium hydroxide. [30] The maximum concentration of ammonia in water (a saturated solution) has a specific gravity of 0.880 and is often known as '.880 ammonia'. [31]

  6. Point of zero charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_of_zero_charge

    The point of zero charge is the pH value for which the net surface charge of adsorbent is equal to zero. This concept has been introduced by an increase of interest in the pH of the solution during adsorption experiments. [1] The reason is that the adsorption of some substances is very dependent on pH.

  7. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henderson–Hasselbalch...

    The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation can be used to model these equilibria. It is important to maintain this pH of 7.4 to ensure enzymes are able to work optimally. [10] Life threatening Acidosis (a low blood pH resulting in nausea, headaches, and even coma, and convulsions) is due to a lack of functioning of enzymes at a low pH. [10]

  8. Freshwater environmental quality parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freshwater_environmental...

    The toxicity of ammonia is dependent on both pH and temperature and an added complexity is the buffering effect of the blood/water interface across the gill membrane which masks any additional toxicity over about pH 8.0. The management of river chemistry to avoid ecological damage is particularly difficult in the case of ammonia as a wide range ...

  9. Isoelectric point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoelectric_point

    The isoelectric point (pI, pH(I), IEP), is the pH at which a molecule carries no net electrical charge or is electrically neutral in the statistical mean. The standard nomenclature to represent the isoelectric point is pH(I). [1] However, pI is also used. [2] For brevity, this article uses pI.
