Homework Statement
Calculate the pH of a solution of a concentration of 0.23 mol/L of H2SO4, if it completely ionizes in the solution.
Homework Equations
[H3O] = 10[tex]^{-pH}[/tex]
pH = -log[H3O]
The Attempt at a Solution
The answer I got for this question is 0.34. I got this answer by first writing out the ionization equation for H2SO4, and determining how many hydronium ions are made, which I got as two. Then, I found out the concentration of the hydronium ions by multiplying 0.23 mol/L by 2. Then, I used pH = -log[H3O], and got the answer of 0.34. Am I right?
