A chemist dissolves 699. mg of pure hydrobromic acid in enough water to make up 180. mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Respuesta :

Answer: 1.32

Explanation:

First, we must obtain the molar mass of HBr. After that, we try to obtain the concentration of the hydrobromic acid from the formula n=CV since the volume of solution and mass of acid was provided. Recall that n=m/M. If the concentration of acid is thus obtained, we make use of the fact that the concentration of H+ in the acid is equal to the molar concentration of HBr to obtain the pH. The pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration we obtained in the initial step.
