Answer 1

Yeah I don't know either? n.n lol.

Answer 2

Yeah it's weird

Answer 3

I don't know how to find a person who knows, I'm new to this

Answer 8

yeah this seems like more of a chemistry question...at least thats what google tells me lol. Sorry we can't be of more help! :0

Answer 9

nitric acid is a strong acid so it dissociates completely

Answer 10

so ph is defined as the -log_10 [H+]

Answer 11

Ok...

Answer 12

for nitric acid because it is HNO3 it only has one hydrogetn so essentially the concentration of hydrogen ions you have is the given 1.2 x 10^-3 M (I played around with te nubmers since what you gave didn't make sense)
to find the ph simply take the negative log base 10 of your expression

Answer 13

Hmm ok

Answer 14

So apparently the original question is unsolvable? :/

Answer 15

pleas take a screencap of the original question so I can look at it... copy paste is messin gup the formatting

Answer 16

What is the pH of a 1.2 x 10^3 M solution nitric acid solution? I think I missed the ^

Answer 17

whoops

Answer 18

ar eyou sur eit isn't -3

Answer 19

100% sure

Answer 20

This was written by a teacher so perhaps it's a mistake?

Answer 21

yes. it should be -3.

Answer 22

Ok

Answer 23

I'll let her know

Answer 24

anwayays you just take log(1.2 x 10^-3)

Answer 25

Sounds good

Answer 27

Make sure that teacher gets what coming to her ;) lol. Demand that freaking A! x)
