The pH scale for acidity is defined by pH= -log subscript 10 [H superscript+] where [H superscript+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions measured in moles per liter (m).
A solution has a pH of 8.4
Calculate the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per liter (M)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per liter (M) is [tex]3.981 * 10^{-9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know

The hydrogen ion concentration of any solution at pH is given by

[tex]H^+ = 10^{-pH}[/tex]

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

[tex]H^+ = 10^{-8.4}\\H^+ = 3.981 * 10^{-9}[/tex] mol/l

The concentration of hydrogen ions in moles per liter (M) is [tex]3.981 * 10^{-9}[/tex]
