The pH of 10–8 M HCl solution is (AFMC 2008)

A.8
B.more than 8
C.between 6 and 7✓ Correct
D.slightly more than 7
Explanation

Given, concentration of HCl is- 3 CH COOH –5 10 –4 10 –3 10 –2 10 IONIC EQUILIBRIUM 53 + 8 [HCl]=[H ]=10 M The [H ] due to the auto-ionization of water is 7 10 M . So total amount of 8 7 [H ] 10 10 M 7 1 7 10 1 10 1.1 10 x pH = 7 log 1.1 10 6.96 x
