Answer: 8.5
Explanation:
pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
[tex]pH=-\log [H^+][/tex]
Given : Concentration of hydrogen ion= [tex][H^+]=3.16\times 10^{-9}[/tex]
Putting in the values in the given formula:
[tex]pH=-log{3.16\times 10^{-9}}[/tex]
[tex]pH=8.5[/tex]
The potential of hydrogen pH of the given solution with the given concentration of hydronium ion is 8.5.
Option D) is the correct answer.
The pH of a solution is defined as the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration [H+] of the given solution.
pH is expressed as;
pH = -log[ H⁺ ]
Given that;
pH = -log[ H⁺ ]
pH = -log[ 3.16 × 10⁻⁹ ]
pH = 8.5
Therefore, the potential of hydrogen pH of the given solution with the given concentration of hydronium ion is 8.5.
Option D) is the correct answer.
