Answer:

pH = 2.57

Explanations:

The formula for calculating the pH of a solution is expressed as:


pH=-log[H^+]

Given the following parameter

[H+] = 0.0027

Substitute the given parameter into the formula to have:


\begin{gathered} pH=-log[0.0027] \\ pH=-(-2.57) \\ pH=2.57 \end{gathered}

Hence the pH of a solution that has a [H+] of 0.0027 is 2.57
