The pH of a solution ranges from 0 to 14. An acid has a pH less than 7. Pure water is neutral and has a pH of 7. The pH of a solution is given by pH = -logx where x represents the concentration of the hydrogen ions in the solution in moles per liter. Find the pH if the hydrogen ion concentration is 1 x 10^-1

Question

This is a plug n' chug. 'x' is the concentration of H ions, so just plug 1e(-1) into the equation for 'x'

anonymous · Answer

so it would be 1

anonymous · Answer

yes. So that makes it acidic or basic?
