The pH of lemon juice is about 2.3.
(a) What is the concentration of hydrogen ions in lemon juice?
The concentration is moles per liter.
[Hint: pH = ]
(b) A person squeezes 4 oz of lemon juice into a cup. Based on your
answer to part (a), how many hydrogen ions does this juice contain?
Your answer should be a very large number, so in order to fit your
answer in the box, you should use scientific notation. For example
you could enter by entering
2.45 * 10^(18) instead of 2,450,000,000,000,000,000.
Number of ions: ions.
[Hint: 1 liter = 30.3 ounces, and one mole of Hydrogen ions is
Hydrogen ions. Note that the concentration
you found in (a) is given in moles per liter.]
