The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H+], where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions. A basic solution has a
Rzqust [24]
For the basic solution:
11.2 = -log[H+]
[H+] = 6.31 x 10⁻¹²
For the acidic solution:
2.4 = -log[H+]
[H+] = 3.98 x 10⁻³
The difference:
3.98 x 10⁻³ - 6.31 x 10⁻¹²
≈ 4.0 x 10⁻³
The answer is B
