    The document discusses key aspects of pH and acid-base chemistry in 3 paragraphs and 1 equation: 1) The pH scale is used to measure hydrogen ion concentration on a logarithmic scale from 0-14, with lower values being more acidic. 2) A change of 1 pH unit represents a 10-fold change in hydrogen ion concentration. 3) pH values are used to distinguish between acidic, neutral, and alkaline solutions. The ion product constant expression shows that the product of hydrogen and hydroxide ion concentrations in pure water is constant at 25°C.
