We know that pure water has a pH = 7. What is the concentration of H+ ions present in pure water? (Hint: the equation used to calculate the pH is: pH = -log(concentration of H+). Recall that the opposite of a logarithm function is 10*, so you will need to rearrange our pH equation to solve for the (concentration of H+).

We know that pure water has a pH = 7. What is the concentration of H+ jons present in pure water?
(Hint: the equation used to calculate the pH is: pH = -log(concentration of H+). Recall that the opposite
of a logarithm function is 10%, so you will need to rearrange our pH equation to solve for the
(concentration of H+). Also, don't forget that negative sign!)
