Answer: The pH will be 3.87

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

[tex]pH=-\log [H^+][/tex]

[tex]HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^{-}[/tex]

According to stoichiometry,

1 mole of [tex]HCl[/tex] gives 1 mole of [tex]H^+[/tex]

Thus [tex]0.000134[/tex] moles of [tex]HCl[/tex] gives =[tex]\frac{1}{1}\times 0.000134=0.0001342[/tex] moles of [tex]H^+[/tex]

Putting in the values:

[tex]pH=-\log[0.000134][/tex]

[tex]pH=3.87[/tex]

Thus the pH will be 3.87

Answer: The pH of 0.000134 M solution of HCl is 3.873.

Explanation:

When HCl dissociates in water then it will give hydrogen and chlorine ions. The reaction will be as follows.

          [tex]HCl \rightarrow H^{+} + Cl^{-}[/tex]

This means that 1 mole of HCl is giving 1 mole of hydrogen ions on dissociation.

Hence, pH of the given solution will be calculated as follows.

                pH = [tex]-log [H^{+}][/tex]

                      = [tex]-log (0.000134)[/tex]

                      = 3.873

Thus, we can conclude that the pH of 0.000134 M solution of HCl is 3.873.
