i just found an eqn from last year:
Kw=[H+][OH-]=1.0 * 10^-4
therefore, it is base ten because the concentration of the hydrogen proton is expressed as a power of ten, and like Lisa says, pH=-log[H+] or -log[H3O]
when you take the logarithm(base 10) of the concentration, you cancel out the power of ten and get the POWER OF HYDROGEN!!! mwuaahhaha
