Question

A solution has a pH of 11.75. Calculate the [H:0*] of the solution

Answer 1

The [H₃0⁺] of the solution : 1.778  x 10⁻¹² M

Further explanation  

pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.  

pH = - log [H⁺]  

So that the two quantities between pH and [H⁺] are inversely proportional because they are associated with negative values.  

A solution whose value is different by n has a difference in the concentration of H⁺ ion of 10ⁿ.  

pH of solution = 11.75

the [H₃0⁺] of the solution :

$\tt pH=-log[H_3O^+]\\\\11.75=-log[H_3O^+]\\\\(H_3O^+]=10^{-11.75}=1.778\times 10^{-12}$
