The pH value of the resulting solution is 11.9.
To calculate the pH value of the solution we need to calculate the molarity (c) of the solution, using the number of moles of HCl (n) and the volume of the solution (V = 662 mL = 0.662 L).
c = n/V
To obtain the number of moles of HCl, we are going to use the mass of HCl (m = 18.4 g) and its molar mass (M = 36.5 g/mol):
n = m/M
n = 18.4 g / 36.5 g/mol
n = 0.504 mol
Now we can calculate the molarity:
c = 0.504 mol / 0.662 L
c = 0.761 M
Because HCl is a monoprotic acid, the molarity of the solution is equal to the concentration of H⁺ ions ([H⁺] = 0.761 M), which is important for calculating pH:
pH = -log[H⁺]
pH = -log(0.761)
pH = 11.9
