What is pH?

Back

pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution, indicating its acidity or basicity. It is calculated as pH = -log[H+].

What is pOH?

Back

pOH is a measure of the hydroxide ion concentration in a solution, indicating its basicity. It is calculated as pOH = -log[OH-].
