"In chemistry, pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. Solutions with a pH less than 7 are said to be acidic and solutions with a pH greater than 7 are basic or alkaline."
If I remember correctly bleach has a rating near 11.
So.. how exactly did you get from "potential" to pH? If you had said..

I see you like math, but what is the alkalinity/pH/acidity of bleach?
Ha, got you there forgeter

I would agree with you that the answer is around 12. However, you stuck the word "Hydrogen" in there which makes us think that you're talking about Hydrogen Peroxide, a bleaching agent, which has a pH of around 6. You also said "potential," which has no real relevance to pH.

pH = potential of hydrogen/power of hydrogen. I should've realized it sooner.

Bah, I'm no exert chemist by any means so I may be completely wrong. pH is what I meant, I don't know if potential of hydrogen is used as a term.

Oh, it's power of hydrogen. I understand now.

I read the title as 'So I decided to do a bit of meth...'

Been at 11 posts per day for a while
in about a month I'll have 10000 posts

What would be more interesting is some sort of calculator that calculates your chance to get banned in a certain period of time based on how much you post.

Right, because pH scales exponentially. It's a measure of diffused H ions (can't remember if H- and OH+ or H+ and OH-)

using the week before today, so not including the posts I made today (it is currently August 3), I'd have about 36448 posts (rounded up)
5,206 a day
Congratulations, you win the no life award!

Oh wait no I'm stupid, I thought you meant 36448 in the past week

5362 posts in a bit more than 2.5 years
Didn't do it right

He'd literally have to be typing his entire life. :o

2118 posts (last post before forum went completely key-only was on 27-09-2011, got a 2nd key on 06-06-2013).

I've got 3400. Add it to my former account and my posts should be somewhere in 6000.

I'm pretty sure it's H+ and OH-



11,993 posts, which is pretty close to how many I have now

edit: just realized i'm stupid really fast.
