Hno3 is a strong acid. calculate the ph of an aqueous 0.60 m solution.

pH = 0.22

Explanation:

The pH of the a solution is related to the concentration of the hydronium ion as follows:

pH = -log([H₃O⁺])

HNO₃ is a strong acid that reacts to completion with water as follows:

HNO₃ + H₂O ⇒ H₃O⁺ + NO₃⁻

The molar ratio between nitric acid and the hydronium ion is 1:1, so a 0.60 M nitric acid solution has a hydronium ion concentration of 0.60 M.

The pH is calculated:

pH = -log([H₃O⁺]) = -log(0.60) = 0.22

it is stable as it is in group 0 which have full outer shells of electrons
