Calculate the ratio of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 7. Find the concentration of H+ ions to OH– ions listed in Table B of your Student Guide. Then divide the H+ concentration by the OH– concentration. Record this calculated ratio in Table A of your Student Guide.

Compare your approximated and calculated ratios of H+ ions to OH– ions at a pH = 7. Are they the same? Why or why not? Record your comparison in Table A.
