The pH of a liquid is a measure of how acidic or basic it is. The concentration of hydrogen ions in a liquid is labeled [H+]. Use the formula pH=-log[H+] to find the pH level, to the nearest tenth, of a liquid with [H+] about 6.2x10^-14.

answer options are:
A) -14.8
B) 14.8
C) 13.2
D) -13.2

It just wants you to do -log[6.2(10^-14)] in a calculator. :)
And as a hint, pH levels usually aren't lower than 0 or greater than 14. (USUALLY) 
Hope this helps!
