Question

Find the [h3o ] in a sauvignon blanc with a ph of 3.24.

Answer 1

Hello!

The H₃O⁺ concentration can be found using the definition of pH and clearing the equation for [H₃O⁺]. The solution has a pH lower than 7, so the Sauvignon Blanc is acid. The calculation for [H₃O⁺] is shown below:


`pH=-log [H_3O^(+)]`


`[H_3O^(+)]= 10^(-pH)=10^(-3,24)=0,00058M`

So, the concentration of H₃O⁺ in a Sauvignon Blanc with a pH of 3,24 is 0,00058 M

Have a nice day!
