Plz solve it.

Dear student,
First we need to find the concentration of H+ in the above solutions.

We know , pH = -log[H+] based on this we get,
Solution A:
Given pH = 2 , 
2 =-log[H+] , [H+] = 10-2 M 

Solution B :
Given pH = 9 , 
9 =-log[H+] , [H+] = 10-9 M 


Now we need to calculate the resultant molarity when these two are mixed.

MV = M1V1 + M2V2

Here V = 1000 mL , V1 = 100 mL and V2 = 400 mL

Thus substituting the values we get,

M x 1000 = 10-2 x 100 + 10-9 x 400

M x 1000 = 1 + 0.0000004 = 1.0000004 ( ~ 1 )

M = 1 / 1000 = 1 x 10-3 

Thus resultant concentration will be 1 x 10-3  M .

Thus now pH = -log[H+] = -log[1 x 10-3 ] = 3-0= 3 .


Thus the resultant pH will be 3 .
