  2. Hydrogen ion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_ion

    The concentration of hydrogen ions and pH are inversely proportional; in an aqueous solution, an increased concentration of hydrogen ions yields a low pH, and subsequently, an acidic product. By definition, an acid is an ion or molecule that can donate a proton, and when introduced to a solution it will react with water molecules (H 2 O) to ...

  3. pH - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PH

    pH values can be measured in non-aqueous solutions, but they are based on a different scale from aqueous pH values because the standard states used for calculating hydrogen ion concentrations are different. The hydrogen ion activity, a H +, is defined [21] [22] as:

  4. Buffer solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_solution

    The pH changes relatively slowly in the buffer region, pH = pK a ± 1, centered at pH = 4.7, where [HA] = [A −]. The hydrogen ion concentration decreases by less than the amount expected because most of the added hydroxide ion is consumed in the reaction

  5. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    Most of the carbonic acid then dissociates to bicarbonate and hydrogen ions. The bicarbonate buffer system is an acid-base homeostatic mechanism involving the balance of carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3), bicarbonate ion (HCO − 3), and carbon dioxide (CO 2) in order to maintain pH in the blood and duodenum, among other tissues, to support proper ...

    Fluoride ion HF Hydrogen fluoride: PO 3− 4 Phosphate ion HPO 2− 4 Hydrogen phosphate ion OH − Hydroxide ion H 2 O Water (neutral, pH 7) HCO − 3 Bicarbonate: H 2 CO 3 Carbonic acid: CO 2− 3 Carbonate ion: HCO − 3 Bicarbonate: Br − Bromide ion HBr Hydrogen bromide: HPO 2− 4 Hydrogen phosphate: H 2 PO − 4 Dihydrogen phosphate ion ...

  7. Isohydric principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isohydric_principle

    The isohydric principle is the phenomenon whereby multiple acid/base pairs in solution will be in equilibrium with one another, tied together by their common reagent: the hydrogen ion and hence, the pH of solution. That is, when several buffers are present together in the same solution, they are all exposed to the same hydrogen ion activity.

  8. Predominance diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predominance_diagram

    The chromate ion is the predominant species in the region to the right of the green and blue lines. Above pH ~6.75 it is always the predominant species. At pH < 5.89 (pH < pK 1) the hydrogen chromate ion is predominant in dilute solution but the dichromate ion is predominant in more concentrated solutions.

  9. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation - Wikipedia

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

    C A is the analytical concentration of the acid and C H is the concentration the hydrogen ion that has been added to the solution. The self-dissociation of water is ignored. A quantity in square brackets, [X], represents the concentration of the chemical substance X. It is understood that the symbol H + stands for the hydrated hydronium ion.
