Answer:

The
of the clean compound is approximately 10.495.

Explanation:

If the cleaning ion concentration of the cleaning compound is
[H^(+)] = 3.2* 10^(-11) , then the
, no unit, of the compound is:

$pH = -\log_(10) [H^(+)]$ (1)

$pH = -\log_(10) (3.2* 10^(-11))$

$pH = -\log_(10) 3.2 - \log_(10) (10^(-11))$

$pH = -\log_(10) (32)/(10) +11$

$pH = -\log_(10) 32 + \log_(10) 10 + 11$

$pH = -\log_(10) 32 +12$

$pH \approx 10.495$

The
of the clean compound is approximately 10.495.
