### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Definition of pH Scale**: The pH scale is a numerical scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. 2. **Measurement of Hydrogen Ions**: It measures the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺) in a solution. The more hydrogen ions present, the more acidic the solution is. 3. **pH Formula**: The pH is calculated using the formula: \[ ...

The main scale of a vernier callipers is calibrated in mm and 19 divisions of main scale are equal in length to 20 divisions of vernier scale. In measuring the diameter of a cylinder by this instrument, the main scale reads 35 divisions and the 4th division of vernier scale coincides with a main scale division. Find least count .

The least count of the main scale of vernier callipers is 1 mm. Its vernier scale is divided into 10 divisions and coincide with 9 division of the main scale. When jaws are touching each other, the 7^(th) division of main scale and zero of main scale. When this vernier is used to measure lenght of a cylinder the zero of the vernier scales between 3.1 cm and 3.2 cm and 4^(th) VSD coincider with a main scale division . The lehgth of the cylinder is : (VSD is vernier scale division)

The main scale of a vernier calliper reads in mm and its vernier scale is divided into 8 divisions, which coincides with 7 divisions of the main scale. It was also observed that, when the two jaws are brought in contact, the zero of the vernier scale coincided with the zero of the main scale. The edge length of a cube is measured using this vernier calliper. The main scale reads 12 mm and 2^("nd") division of the vernier scale coincides with the main scale. The edge length (in mm) of the cube is
