Which of the following ions concentration is shown by pH in basic solutions ?
A) OH- B) OH+ C)H+ D)H-
Actually the correct option would be C.
We give the solution is acidic or basic on the basis of H+ ion only.
pH = -log [H+]
If the value of pH is greater than 7 then solution is said to be basic.
If we know the concentration of OH- ion then we at first calculate the pOH of the solution and then pH is calculated as :
14- pOH = pH
