Alona [7]

Answer:

pH of HNO₃ having an hydrogen ion concentration of 0.71M is 0.149

Explanation:

HNO₃ (aqueous) ⇄ H⁺ + NO3⁻

The pH is defined as the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration

pH = - log [H⁺]

From the question, the hydrogen ion concentration is given as 0.71M, therefore

pH = -log [0.71]

     = 0.149
