Find the pH of 8.4x10^-8 M HCl. Report the answer to the hundredths place.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

pH = 7.08

Explanation:

HCl ---------> H^+ + Cl^-

It's an acid, we are using this formula

pH = -log [H]^+

H^+ = 8.4 * 10^-8

pH = - log [8.4 * 10^-8]

It can also be solved as

-log 8.4-(-8log 10)

-0.924-(-8×1)

-0.924+8

7.076

To the nearest hundredth

pH = 7.08
