Answer:
2
Explanation:
First, find the hydronium ion concentration of the solution with a pH of 4.
[H₃O⁺] = 10^-pH
[H₃O⁺] = 10⁻⁴
[H₃O⁺] = 1 × 10⁻⁴
Next, multiple the hydronium ion concentration by 100 to find the hydronium ion concentration of the new solution.
[H₃O⁺] = 1.0 × 10⁻⁴ × 100 = 0.01
Lastly, find the pH.
pH = -log [H₃O⁺]
pH = -log (0.01)
pH = 2
The pH of a solution that has a hydronium ion concentration 100 times greater than a solution with a pH of 4 is 2.
Hope this helps.
