• To calculate density

Which pH value indicates a neutral solution?

• 0

• 14

• 7

• 1

What is the pH range of solutions?

• 0 to 7

• 1 to 14

• 0 to 14

• 7 to 14

What are the two types of electrodes found in a pH probe?

• Primary and secondary electrodes

• Anode and cathode

• Positive and negative electrodes

• Sensor and reference electrodes

What solution is contained in the reference electrode of a pH meter?

• Saturated potassium chloride

• Distilled water

• Sodium chloride

• Hydrochloric acid

How does a pH meter measure the pH value?

• By observing color changes

• By weighing the solution

• By comparing generated voltage with a reference

• By measuring temperature changes

What happens to the voltage when the acidity of a solution increases?

• Voltage fluctuates

• Voltage increases

• Voltage remains constant

• Voltage decreases

What effect does increased alkalinity have on the pH reading?

• Increases pH value

• No effect on pH value

• Decreases pH value

• Fluctuates pH value

What is the impact of continuous use on the glass membrane of a pH probe?

• Decreases porosity

• No effect on porosity

• Changes color

• Increases porosity

What is the consequence of decreased porosity in the glass membrane of a pH probe?

• Improved performance

• Increased durability

• No change in performance

• Decreased performance
