[@divineobject]

An important consideration to be made: This approach works when the acids or bases are strong. However, it is not valid for weak acids since they do not dissociate completely. Hence, one must use the Ka to calculate the concentration of hydrogen ions. This is relevant for some of the examples in the video, namely the second dissociation of sulfuric acid and the three dissociation steps of phosphoric acid, each one weaker than the previous one. Keep this in mind and check other videos to complement the information.

[@sheepleslayer586]

To use the scientific calculator for this, do as follows: 1st- push the "log" button.
If it doesn't automatically add the open bracket, hit the "(" button and then punch in the numbers. E.g.- 1.2x10 to the -3, but, you do 1.2 then hit the "Exp" button and then the "(-)" button then the 3 and close the bracket ")" and hit exe or the = button.

[@betha.ostrander4127]

The dude thing is crazy, but remember on your problems to use proper number of sig figs. It wouldn't be 4.85 for a pH if the problem is giving you 1.4 M. You have two use two sig figs and round up to 4.9.

[@ibrahimhamid3321]

thanks, easy to understand explaining!!

[@chemistrychannel5021]

When I first take this lesson I was just thinking "why do we use logarthims?!" After I study general chemistry I realized that scientists found the concentration of H+ is really small numbers so its really hard to deal with most of the concentration where like 1×10^-4 etc.. so they just use log to deal with the normal numbers we know like 1 23 just like convert from hard numbers to easy numbers and that make sense to me ! Math is every where😁

[@ecromancer]

Isn't -log(1.4 * 10^-5) = 4.853871964 with significant figure and rounding rules would be 4.8? I was taught for rounding that if the rounding number was even and the number after that was a 5 you don't change it but if the rounding number is odd, you round up. That's why I didn't say 4.9.
