The pH pH scale for acidity is defined by pH = − log 10 [ H + ] pH=-log10[H+] where [ H + ] [H+]is the concentration of hydrogen ions measured in moles per liter (M). A solution has a pH pH of 4.6. Calculate the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per liter (M). The concentration of hydrogen ions is Preview moles per liter.

Answer:

2 51 × 10^-5mol/L

Step-by-step explanation:

The concentration of hydrogen ions can be calculated using the formula below :

pH = -log [H+]

pH = 4.6

[H+] = ?

[H+] = Antilog (-4.6)

[H+] = 2 51 × 10^-5mol/L
