Logarithms

The logarithm of a number is the number of times

10 must be multiplied by itself to equal that number.

Logarithms

1000 = 10 x 10 x 10

log 1000 = 3

Logarithms

To find the logarithm of a number, count the zeroes.

If the number is in scientific notation,

look at the exponent.

Logarithms

1 = 1 x 100

10 = 1 x 101

100 = 1 x 102

0.1 = 1 x 10-1

0.01 = 1 x 10-2

log 1 = 0

log 10 = 1

log 100 = 2

log 0.1 = -1

log 0.01 = -2

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

100 x 1000 = 100,000

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

100 x 1000 = 100,000

2 + 3 = 5

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

1 x 108 = 100,000,000

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

1 x 108 = 100,000,000

0 + 8 = 8

Logarithms

You can multiply two numbers by adding their logarithms.

2 x 108 = 200,000,000

? + 8 = ?

Logarithms

So what’s the logarithm of 2? You have to look it up.

2 x 108 = 200,000,000

? + 8 = ?

Logarithms

So what’s the logarithm of 2? You have to look it up.

2 x 108 = 200,000,000

0.301 + 8 = 8.301

Logarithms

What if the number is small instead of big?

Logarithms

What if the number is small instead of big?

0.0003 = 3 x 10-4

Logarithms

What if the number is small instead of big?

0.0003 = 3 x 10-4

log 0.0003 = log 3 + log 10-4

Logarithms

What if the number is small instead of big?

0.0003 = 3 x 10-4

log 0.0003 = log 3 + log 10-4

= 0.477 – 4

Logarithms

What if the number is small instead of big?

0.0003 = 3 x 10-4

log 0.0003 = log 3 + log 10-4

= 0.477 – 4

= -3.523

pH

pH = -log [H+]pOH = -log [OH-]

pH + pOH = 14

[H+] = 0.0035

What is the pH?

[H+] = 0.00350.0035 = 3.5 x 10-3

[H+] = 0.00350.0035 = 3.5 x 10-3

log 0.0035 = log 3.5 + log 10-3

[H+] = 0.00350.0035 = 3.5 x 10-3

log 0.0035 = log 3.5 + log 10-3

= 0.544 – 3

[H+] = 0.00350.0035 = 3.5 x 10-3

log 0.0035 = log 3.5 + log 10-3

= 0.544 – 3

= –2.456

[H+] = 0.00350.0035 = 3.5 x 10-3

log 0.0035 = log 3.5 + log 10-3

= 0.544 – 3

= –2.456

pH = 2.456

pH = 6.13

What is the [H+]?

pH = 6.13

–pH = –6.13

pH = 6.13

–pH = –6.13

= 0.87 – 7

pH = 6.13

–pH = –6.13

= 0.87 – 7

[H+] = 7.4 x 10-7

pH = 8.7

What is the pOH?

pH = 8.7

pOH = 14 - pH

pH = 8.7

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 – 8.7

pH = 8.7

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 – 8.7

= 5.3

pH = 8.7

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 – 8.7

= 5.3The solution is acidic.
