Answer

The pH is 11.06

Step-by-step explanation

Given:

[H⁺] = 8.74 x 10⁻¹² M

What to find:

The pH

Step-by-step solution:

The pH can be calculated using the pH formula.


pH=-log[H^+]

Putting [H⁺] = 8.74 x 10⁻¹², we have


\begin{gathered} pH=-log(8.74*10⁻¹²) \\ \\ pH=-(-11.06) \\ \\ pH=11.06 \end{gathered}
