The hydrogen ion concentration of a fruit juice is 3.3xx 10^(-2) M. What is the pH of the juice ? Is it acidic or basic ? |

Answer» Solution :The DEFINITION of pH is We are GIVEN `[H^(+)]=3.3xx10^(-2)` Substituting into the definition of pH, we get `pH=-log(3.3xx10^(-2))` `=-(-1.48)=1.48` SINCE the pH is LESS than 7.00, the solution is acidic. |
