<span>Data:
pH = 5.2
[H+] = ?
Knowing that: (</span><span>Equation to find the pH of a solution)</span>
![pH = -log[H+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3D%20-log%5BH%2B%5D)
<span>
Solving:
</span>
![pH = -log[H+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%20%3D%20-log%5BH%2B%5D)
![5.2 = - log [H+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5.2%20%3D%20-%20log%20%5BH%2B%5D)
Knowing that the exponential is the opposite operation of the logarithm, then we have:
![[H+] = 10^{-5.2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%2B%5D%20%3D%2010%5E%7B-5.2%7D)
False, in converting between units, it is never necessary to use more than one conversion factor.
Absorption occurs when photons from incident light hit atoms and molecules and cause them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. This heat is then emitted from the object as thermal energy.
