I have a major doubt regarding pH(might sound so stupid). But see pH is dependent on (H+) so pH depends on the normality of hydrogen ions. so whether we take 10mL of a 1N HCl soln or 100mL of HCl soln the ph should be the same for both, right? Then why do we always consider volume in the equations. plz help.
