About this document
pH of Pure Water at Varying Temperatures by smallik3 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses the equilibrium of a chemical reaction as temperature changes. It explains that if the temperature of a water solution increases, the equilibrium will shift to increase hydroxide (OH-) and hydronium (H3O+) ion concentration in order to maintain neutral pH. A table is provided showing how the pH of pure water decreases with increasing temperature. The document concludes that a solution with a pH of 7 at high temperatures would be slightly acidic due to the higher concentration of H3O+
