Question

The pH of a solution is 3.6. calculate H₃O⁺ ion concentration.

Answer 1

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

[H3O+] = 2.512×10^-4 M

● Explaination -

Given that pH of solution is 3.6 .

pH is calculated as negative logarithm to base 10 of hydrogen ion concentration of solution.

pH = -log[H3O+]

3.6 = -log[H3O+]

-3.6 = log[H3O+]

[H3O+] = antilog(-3.6)

[H3O+] = 2.512×10^-4 M

Therefore, H₃O⁺ ion concentration is 2.512×10^-4 M.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
