Question
![**Problem Statement**
After dissolving HCl in water, the final concentration of \( \text{H}_3\text{O}^+ \) is \( 3.87 \times 10^{-1} \). What is the pH of this solution? Give your answer to the 2nd decimal.
**Instructions**
Compute the pH by using the formula:
\[ \text{pH} = -\log [\text{H}_3\text{O}^+] \]
