Question

Calculate the pH if [H+] = 3.95 x 10^-5 M

Answer 1

Answer

pH = 4.40

Explanation

Given:

[H⁺] = 3.95 x 10⁻⁵ M

What to find:

The pH of the solution.

Step-by-step solution:

Using the pH formula;

$pH=-log[H^+]$

So,

$\begin{gathered} pH=-log(3.95\times10^{-5}) \\ \\ pH=-(-4.40) \\ \\ pH=4.40 \end{gathered}$
