Instrument that indicates acidity or alkalinity in water-based solutions, expressed as pH
A pH meter is a scientific instrument that measures the hydrogen-ion activity in water-based solutions, indicating its acidity or alkalinity expressed as pH.[2] The pH meter measures the difference in electrical potential between a pH electrode and a reference electrode, and so the pH meter is sometimes referred to as a "potentiometric pH meter". The difference in electrical potential relates to the acidity or pH of the solution.[3] Testing of pH via pH meters (pH-metry) is used in many applications ranging from laboratory experimentation to quality control.[4]
