Answer: The pH 0f 0.10 solution of HCl is 1.00
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
[tex]pH=-\log [H^+][/tex]
[tex]HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^{-}[/tex]
According to stoichiometry,
1 mole of [tex]HCl[/tex] gives 1 mole of [tex]H^+[/tex]
Thus [tex]0.10[/tex] moles of [tex]HCl[/tex] gives =[tex]\frac{1}{1}\times 0.10=0.10[/tex] moles of [tex]H^+[/tex]
Putting in the values:
[tex]pH=-\log[0.10][/tex]
[tex]pH=1.00[/tex]
Thus pH 0f 0.10 solution of HCl is 1.00
