Measure pH with standard voltmeter edit
It is usually not possible because standard digital voltmeters have to small input resistance (impedance technically) and they draw excessive current from pH meter electrode. Also leaked current for ordinary voltmeters are to big to obtain real value of pH. Ofc I can made mistake but some editors shall explain how to do this measurement carefully. 83.21.117.204 (talk) 23:14, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- Just to be clear, are you asking for someone to explain how to convert an over-the-counter voltmeter from a hardware store into a PH meter? Because that isn't going to happen unless there are already relaible sources that discuss it. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 23:55, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
- It's the contrary, digital multimeters have a high input impedance. It's typically the old vacuum tube voltmeters that have low input impedance. — THORNFIELD HALL (Talk) 08:17, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
