Answer:

[H+] = 4.365x10⁻¹¹

Step-by-step explanation:

The pH is a measurement widely used in chemistry. Is used in quality control to determine if a product is good for human or pet consumption. The equation to obtain the pH is:

pH = -log [H+]

To solve [H+]:

10^pH = -[H+]

10^-pH = -[H+]

In the problem:

10^-10.36 = -[H+]

[H+] = 4.365x10⁻¹¹
