Hello,
I am having an issue with figuring the following: For pH 9.5 I am getting 3.16 x 10 ^-10. Is this correct? Thank you
Solution X has a pH of 9.5, and solution Y has a pH of 7.6.?
What is [H3O+] in Solution X?
What is [H3O+] in Solution Y?
The acidity or alkalinity of a solution is defined by
pH = –log[H+] where [H+] is the hydrogen ion concentration, measured in moles per liter.
Solutions with a pH value of less than 7 are acidic; solutions with a pH value of greater than 7 are basic and solutions with a pH of 7 (such as pure water) are neutral.
a) Suppose that you test apple juice and find that the hydrogen ion concentration is [H+] = 0.0003. Find the pH value and determine whether the juice is basic or acidic.
200.0 mL of a 0.690 M solution of KCl is diluted to 600.0 mL. What is the new concentration of the solution?
