Briefly describe how a potentiometric pHmeter works. (Hint: Describe how the pH meter measures the amount of H+ or OH- ions in a sample)

A general instrument, which is used to determine the concentration of hydrogen ion within the aqueous solution is known as a pH meter. The meter helps in determining the alkalinity or acidity, which is articulated in the form of pH. It is also called a potentiometric pH meter as it helps in finding the variation in electrical potential between a reference electrode and a pH electrode. This electrical potential variation is associated with the pH of the solution.  

The potentiometric pH meter comprises a pair of electrodes and a basic electronic amplifier, some may even comprise a combination electrode and some sort of display that demonstrates pH units. The potentiometric pH meter generally exhibits a reference electrode or a combination electrode, and a glass electrode. The probes or electrodes are administered within a solution whose pH values are needed to be determined.  

i believe the answer is true.
