The concentration of hydrogen ion of a sample of vinegar : 1.514 x 10⁻⁷

Further explanation

pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.

So that the two quantities between pH and [H⁺] are inversely proportional because they are associated with negative values.

A solution whose value is different by n has a difference in the concentration of H⁺ ion of 10ⁿ.

pH = - log [H⁺]

pH of a sample vinegar = 6.82

The concentration of hydrogen ion :


\tt 6.82=-log[H^+]\\\\(H^+]=10^(-6.82)=1.514* 10^(-7)
