Question

The concentration of hydronium ion in a sample of soft drink is 3.8*10^-3m. What is its ph

Answer 1

In chemistry, hydronium is the common name for the aqueous cation H 3O+ , the type of oxonium ion produced by protonation of water. It is the positive ion present when an Arrhenius acid is dissolved in water, as Arrhenius acid molecules in solution give up a proton to the surrounding water mole

Answer 2

$\huge\boxed{\underline{\mathcal{\red{A}\green{N}\pink{S}\orange{W}\blue{E}\purple{R}}}}$

❤..pH= -${log[3.8×10^-3]}$

= _ ${{log[3.8]+log[10^-3]}}$

_ ${{(0.58)+(-3.0)} = -{_2.42} =2.42}$

Therefore, the PH of the soft drink is2.42 and it can be inferred that is acidic
