Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

pH = - log[ H⁺]

8.26 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻⁸°²⁶ mole / l

= 5.49 x 10⁻⁹ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.49 x 10⁻⁹

= .182 x 10⁻⁵ moles / l

b )

10.25 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻¹⁰°²⁵ mole / l

= 5.62 x 10⁻¹¹ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.62 x 10⁻¹¹

= .178 x 10⁻³ moles / l

c )

4.65 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻⁴°⁶⁵ mole / l

= 2.24 x 10⁻⁵ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 2.24 x 10⁻⁵

= .4464 x 10⁻⁹ moles / l
