Basicity

Quantitative measurement of the properties of a base. According to Arrhenius the strength of a base is measured by the concentration of OH- ions. In diluted solutions, the basicity increases to pH above 7 and the maximum occurs at pH = 14. In concentrated solutions, basicity is measured with the concentration of [OH-].
