Answer to Question #190456 in Chemistry for David

Question

Given the approximate pH of the following items, calculate the [H+]: a. Oranges 3.5 ?

Answer 1

Solution:

pH = 3.5

We can convert between pH and [H⁺] using the following equation:

pH = - log[H⁺]

[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-3.5 = 3.16×10^-4

[H⁺] = 3.16×10^-4 M

Answer: [H⁺] = 3.16×10^-4 M
