Chapter 17, Problem 14PE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The hydrogen ion concentration of a solution having $\text{pH}=2.335$ is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The $\text{pH}$ scale tells about the strength of an acid and a base. It measures the concentration of the hydrogen ions. There is an inverse relation between the $\text{pH}$ value and the concentration of the hydrogen ion. Higher the concentration of hydrogen ions, lesser the value of $\text{pH}$.
