Hello everyone today. You're the following problem, determine the concentration of hydro ni um ions in the solution with a ph of 13 point to use the correct number of significant figures for your answer. So the first thing you do is you want to recall the equation to solve for P. H. And that is that the ph is equal to the negative log of our concentration of hydro ni um ions. And so how do we find that concentration of hydrogen ions? Well, we can say that the concentration of hydro liam ions is equal to 10 raised to the negative P. H. And so when we solve this out, that is going to be 10 raised to the negative and the ph is 13.2 and will be plugged us into our calculator. We get a value equal to 6.3 Times 10 to the -14 Moller as our final answer. And so with that we have found the concentration of hydro knee um ions overall. I hope that this helped. And until next time.
