Standard state

Standard state

For solutions in general, the conditions under which thermodynamic properties of a solute are defined, namely 1M. The properties of the solution are those extrapolated from very dilute solutions. In biochemistry the standard state is defined for (H⁺)=10^-7M (pH 7), and thermodynamic properties of all other ionising species are defined for a total of all protonated and deprotonated species of 1M.
