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

pH = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = concentration of the hydrogen ions in the solution in moles per liter.

We know that pH = -log x.

When the concentration of the hydrogen ion is 1 × 10⁻¹ M, x = 1 × 10⁻¹ and the pH is:

pH = -log x = -log 1 × 10⁻¹ = - (-1) = 1

Since the pH is less than 1, the solution is an acid.

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).
