The video explains the auto-ionization of water, where water molecules can form hydronium and hydroxide ions. It discusses the concentration of hydrogen ions in pure water and compares it with other solutions like orange juice and bleach. The concept of pH is introduced as a simplified way to express hydrogen ion concentration, and calculations for pH in different solutions are demonstrated. The video concludes with an explanation of the pH scale, highlighting the logarithmic nature and its implications for acidity and alkalinity.

What happens during the auto-ionization of water?

• A water molecule loses an electron.

• Two water molecules combine into one.

• A hydrogen ion is transferred between two water molecules.

• A water molecule gains a neutron.
