Question

Graph the pH function using the graphing utility. Then answer the questions.

Answer 1

Answer:

pH = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph the pH function :

The range of the pH function varies from 1 to 14

And the concentration of hydrogen ion goes from 0 to 1

Taking pH value on y-axis and concentration of hydrogen ion on x-axis, The resultant graph is attached below :

Given : Concentration of hydrogen ion = 0.01

Now, pH = -log(0.01)

$pH=-\log(\frac{1}{100})\\\\pH=-(\log 1 - \log 100)\\pH=-(0-2)\\\implies\bf pH=2$

Answer 2

The pH of a solution is a measure of the acidity of the solution. It relates to the hydrogen ion concentration present in the solution. It is related to it logarithmically. It is expressed as:

pH = -log [H+]

We calculate as follows:

pH = -log[0.01]
pH = 2
