Answer:
Concentration of hydrogen ion, ![[H^+]=5.0118*10^{-6} M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D5.0118%2A10%5E%7B-6%7D%20M)
Explanation:
pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion's concentration.
The lower the value of pH, the higher the acidic the solution is.
The formula for pH can be written as:
![pH=-log[H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-log%5BH%5E%2B%5D)
Given,
pH of the saliva of Marco = 5.3
To calculate: Hydrogen ion concentration in the saliva
Thus, applying in the formula as:
![pH=-log[H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-log%5BH%5E%2B%5D)
![5.3=-log[H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=5.3%3D-log%5BH%5E%2B%5D)
So,
![log[H^+]=-5.3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=log%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D-5.3)
![[H^+]=10^{(-5.3)}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D10%5E%7B%28-5.3%29%7D)
![[H^+]=5.0118*10^{-6} M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%2B%5D%3D5.0118%2A10%5E%7B-6%7D%20M)
Im pretty sure its D. I would wait for others though.
ATP is essentially the energy currency of the body.It is the breakdown of ATP that releases energy which the body's tissues such as muscle can use.
