If Ht represents the concentration of hydrogen ions (in moles/liter) in the solution, the pH is defined by pH - log Ht| Based on careful measurements and calculations, a chemist examines two solutions and asserts: "The hydrogen ion concentration of Solution A is 65.86% greater than the hydrogen ion concentration of Solution B." If the pH of solution B is 10.00, determine the pH of Solution A. Report your answer to two decimal places. Solution A has pH equal to Number (Report to the nearest 0.01)arrow_forward
