Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

pH is defined as negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration. It is basically defined as the power of hydrogen ions that are present in a solution.

Mathematically,


pH=-\log[H_3O^+]

pH of the solution = 9.11

Putting values in above equation, we get:


9.11=-\log[H_3O^+]


[H_3O^+]=antilog(-9.11)


[H_3O^+]=7.8* 10^(-10)

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.
