The acidity of a solution is measured by its pH. If HT| represents the concentration of hydrogen ions (in moles/liter) in the solution, the pH is defined by pH = – log H+ Based on careful measurements and calculations, a chemist examines two solutions and asserts: "The hydrogen ion concentration of Solution A is 37.93% greater than the hydrogen ion concentration of Solution B." If the pH of solution B is 4.36, determine the pH of Solution A. Report your answer to two decimal places. Solution A has pH equal to Number - (Report to the nearest 0.01)
Chemistry The label of an energy drink states that it contains approximately 80 mg of caffeine (C8H10N4O2) per 250 mL serving. If the caffeine is a weak base with a basicity constant of 2.5 × × 10-4, what is the pH of the drink? (Only caffeine is considered to contribute to the pH of the drink.)
The acidity of a solution is measured by its pH. If Ht represents the concentration of hydrogen ions (in moles/liter) in the solution, the pH is defined by pH = – log H+ Based on careful measurements and calculations, a chemist examines two solutions and asserts: "The hydrogen ion concentration of Solution A is 158 times greater than the hydrogen ion concentration of Solution B." If the pH of solution B is 3.4, determine the pH of Solution A. Report your answer to one decimal place. Solution A has pH equal to Number (Report to the nearest 0.1)
