Answer : The pH of the solution is, 10.4

Explanation :

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

Mathematically,


pH=-\log [H^+]

Given:


[H^+]=3.5* 10^(-11)M

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get the value of pH.


pH=-\log [H^+]


pH=-\log (3.5* 10^(-11)M)


pH=10.4

Thus, the pH of the solution is, 10.4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-log(3.5 * 10^-11)

= 10.4559

Be careful how you put this into your calculator. I had to use Exp to get it to work properly.

-log

(3.5 * 10 exp -11)

=
