pH and pOH: Crash Course Chemistry

The video tutorial explores the concept of pH balance, its significance in everyday products, and the chemistry behind it. It explains the notation of pH and pOH, the role of water in acting as both an acid and a base, and the mathematical calculation of pH using logarithms. The tutorial also covers the pH scale, the use of indicators like litmus paper, and the differences between strong and weak acids and bases. Finally, it discusses how to calculate pOH and its relationship with pH.
