Question

What is the pH of a 3.5 x 10 to the negative 11th M H+ solution

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

-log(3.5 * 10^-11)

= 10.4559

Be careful how you put this into your calculator. I had to use Exp to get it to work properly.

-log

(3.5 * 10 exp -11)

=

Answer 2

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 10.4

Explanation :

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

Mathematically,

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

Given:

$[H^+]=3.5\times 10^{-11}M$

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get the value of pH.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (3.5\times 10^{-11}M)$

$pH=10.4$

Thus, the pH of the solution is, 10.4
