    The pH of \[{{10}^{-8}}M\]solution is

    A)  8

    B)  more than 8

    C)  between 6 and 7

    D)  slightly more than 7

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    From \[{{H}_{2}}O,\]\[[{{H}^{+}}]=1\times {{10}^{-7}}M\] From \[HCl,\]\[[{{H}^{+}}]=1\times {{10}^{-8}}M\] Total \[[{{H}^{+}}]=(1\times {{10}^{-7}}+1\times {{10}^{-8}})M\] \[=(1\times {{10}^{-7}}+0.1\times {{10}^{-7}})M\] \[=1.1\times {{10}^{-7}}M\] \[pH=-\log \,(1.1\times {{10}^{-7}})\]         \[=6.9586\]
