Nernst Equation to find pH

[Miranda 1J]

I read through the book but I still don't understand how we use the Nernst Equation to find pH. Can someone please explain?

At standard conditions, you can use the formula to find the pH. The formula for ph is pH = -log[H+}, so you can find the concentration of hydrogen ions by the Nearst equation.The formula above is already converted from ln to log.

[Phillip Winters 2F]

Yeah, if you solve for the concentration of H+ ions, you can then calculate the pH using the equation pH=log[H+]

[Mitch Walters]

Find the concentration of H+ ions, and then take the negative log of that concentration.

[Max Mazo 2C]

Using the Nernst equation you can find the concentration of H+ ions which you can use to find pH. There was a homework problem that gave you pH and asked to find E, try looking at the solution for that if you're still confused.

[Shreya Ramineni 2L]

you change the lnQ to 2.303logQ, as they are equivalent, and plug that into the equation. The -log[H+] will be the pH.

Since the pH is just a measure of the concentration of H ion concentration, we can use the Nernst equation to find it.
