Chemists define the acidity or alkalinity of a substance according to the formula "pH = -log[H+ " where (H+) is the hydrogen ion concentration, measured in moles per liter. Solutions with a pH value of less than 7 are considered acidic while solutions with a pH value of greater than 7 are basic. On the other hand, solutions with a pH of 7 (such as pure water) are neutral. Suppose that you test apple juice and find that the hydrogen ion concentration is (H+1 = 0.0003. Find the pH value and determine whether the juice is basic or acidic Here are the steps to solve the problem and the rubric that will guide you in giving the correct solution to the problem.
