Question

What is the pH of a solution with [H+] = 2.3 x 10-6

Answer 1

5.64

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

• The concentration of H+ ions as 2.3 x 10^-6 M

We are required to get the pH

• pH is given by getting the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
• That is; pH = -log [H+]

Therefore;

pH = - log [2.3 x 10^-6 M]

= 5.638

= 5.64

Hence the pH of the solution is 5.64
