<em>Calculate the pH of the following substances formed during a volcanic eruption: </em>
<em>• Acid rain if the [H +] is 1.9 x 10-5 </em>
<em>• Sulfurous acid if [H +] = 0.10 </em>
<em>• Nitric acid if [H +] = 0.11</em>
<em />
<h3>Further explanation </h3>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⁺]
- pH acid rain
- pH Sulfurous acid
- pH Nitric acid
