Chapter 15, Problem 15.13QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

What is the $\text{pH}$ of a neutral solution at given condition has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

$\text{pH}$ is an logarithmic expression to express a solution is acidic, basic or neutral.  $\text{pH}$ scale lies values between 1-14 and on which 7 is neutral, below 7 values are more acidic in nature and above 7 values are more basic in nature.

The $\text{pH}$ is equal to ${\text{ -log}}_{\text{10}}\text{c}$

Where, c is hydrogen ion concentration in moles per liter.
