What Is The PH Of Vinegar?
The PH of vinegar depends on how much acetic acid it contains. Basically, most commercial distilled white vinegars contain 5% acetic acid and have a PH of about 2.4
Vinegar is categorized as an acid. The pH value of white vinegar is about 2.4. It contains almost 5 percent of acetic acid. The formula to calculate the pH value is;
pH= - log[H+]
pH value of a solution determines the acidity and basicity of the solution. The concentration of hydrogen ion in a solution is calculated as;
pH= log[H+]-
anti-log pH= [H+]-
[H+] = 1/ anti-log pH
The hydrogen ion concentration in vinegar is;
[H+]= 1/ anti-log 2.4
[H+] = 1/ 251.19
[H+] = 3.98 x 10-3 ions
pH= - log[H+]
pH value of a solution determines the acidity and basicity of the solution. The concentration of hydrogen ion in a solution is calculated as;
pH= log[H+]-
anti-log pH= [H+]-
[H+] = 1/ anti-log pH
The hydrogen ion concentration in vinegar is;
[H+]= 1/ anti-log 2.4
[H+] = 1/ 251.19
[H+] = 3.98 x 10-3 ions
