stomach acid completly dissociates into H+ ions,but tomatores contain organic acids, which hardly dissociate at all.
maybe you want the math.
pH=- log(H+)
or H+=10^-ph
for stomach, H+=10^-1.5
for tomatoes H= 10^-4
making a ratio, ratio= 10^(-1.5+4)=10^2.5
which is 750
If I type 10^2.5 into my calculator, I get 316.2.
