The pH of a solution is 8.43. What is it {H3O+}concentration?
A. 3.7 x 10-3
B. 2.7 x 10-6
C. 1.0 x 10-14
D. 1.0 x 10-8.43

Respuesta :

Answer: D.  [tex]1.0\times 10^{-8.43}M[/tex]

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration.

[tex]pH=-\log [H_3O^+][/tex]

Putting in the values:

[tex]8.43=-\log[H_3O^+][/tex]

[tex][H_3O^+]=10^{-8.43}=3.7\times 10^{-9}M[/tex]

Thus [tex][H_3O^+][/tex] concentration is [tex]10^{-8.43}M[/tex]
