The pH of a solution is 1.60.
Chemical dissotiation of hydrochloric acid:
HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)
c₁(HCl) = 0.10 M; original concentration of the solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl) before it gets diluted
V₁(HCL) = 25.0 ml; the volume of HCl to be diluted
V₂(HCl) = 100.0 ml; final volume of HCl after dilution.
c₂(HCl) = ?; final concentration of the solution of HCl, after dilution
c₁ · V₁ = c₂ · V₂; formula to calculate concentration of a solution
c₂(HCl) = c₁ · V₁ ÷ V₂.
c₂(HCl) = 0.10 M · 25.0 ml ÷ 100 ml
c₂(HCl) = 0.025 M
From chemical reactio: c₂(HCl) = c(H⁺)
c(H⁺) = 0.025 M; concentration of hydrogen ions
pH = -logc(H⁺)
pH = 1.60
