The pH scale measures the hydrogen ion concentration in a liquid, which determines
whether the substance is acidic or alkaline. A strong acid solution has a hydrogen ion
concentration of 10-1 M and would have a pH of 1. A neutral substance has a hydrogen
ion concentration of 10-7 M and would have a pH of 7. An unknown liquid is tested
and is found to have a hydrogen ion concentration of 10–2. What is the pH?
