Chapter 15, Problem 50E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The $\text{pH}$ of the egg white, having hydrogen ions concentration $\left[{\text{H}}^{+}\right]=0.000\text{ 000 0}1M$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The $\text{pH}$ of a solution is defined as the power of hydronium ion or hydrogen ion. It is equal to the negative logarithm of hydrogen/hydronium ion concentration. The $\text{pH}$ tells about whether the solution is acidic or basic.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The $\text{pH}$ of the sour milk, having hydrogen ions concentration $\left[{\text{H}}^{+}\right]=0.000\text{ 00}1M$ is to be stated.
