Title and Subtitle: A table for converting pH to hydrogen ion concentration [H+] over the
range 5-9
Report Date: October 1968
Authors: Fiorica V
Abstract: The wider use, in the future, of hydrogen ion concentration (H+) rather than pH to describe and evaluate acid-base status will require interconversion of the two notations until a final standard is adopted. The relationship between pH and (H+) is given by the general expression pH = - log (H+). Tables relating pH and (H+) have been constructed according to the above expression and will eliminate the need for mathematical computation over a range covering most biological applications.
Key Words: PH factor, tables, concentration, acid base equilibrium
