What is the approximate hydrogen ion concentration of blood with pH 7.4?
Tutorial
In this problem we are given pH and asked to solve for the hydrogen ion concentration. Using the equation, pH = − log [H+] , we can solve for [H+] as,
− pH = log [H+] ,
[H+] = 10−pH,
by exponentiating both sides with base 10 to "undo" the common logarithm. The hydrogen ion concentration of blood with pH 7.4 is,
[H+] = 10−7.4 ≈ 0.0000040 = 4.0 × 10−8 M.
Hope it helps you
