Question

The number of hydrogen ions would equal the number of hydroxide ions in a solution with a pH of _____ .

Answer 1

Your answer is 7,,, this correct just did the quiz from Edgenuity have a nice X Mas Break

Answer 2

At pH=7, number of hydrogen ions would be equal to number of hydroxide ions in a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that at 25
`0_(C)`,
`[H^(+)][OH^(-)]=10^(-14)`

where species inside third bracket represent concentrations in molarity

When number of hydrogen ion will be equal to number of hydroxide ions then
`[H^(+)]=[OH^(-)]`

So
`[H^(+)]^(2)=10^(-14)` or
`[H^(+)]=10^(-7)M`

Hence pH=
`-log[H^(+)]=-log[10^(-7)]=7`
