We can calculate a solution’s pH using a logarithm, which determines a number’s base-ten exponent. In the accompanying simulation (https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/ph-scale), students will observe ions and changes in hydronium (H3O+) and hydroxide (OH-) concentrations in several common substances. This will allow for the measurement and determination of a solution’s acid or basic properties.
