  4. D 2.2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 2.2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} \mathrm{pH} & =-\log \left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right] \\ & =-\log (0.0063) \\ & =-\log \left(6.3 \times 10^{-3}\right) \\ & =3-\log 6.3 \\ & =3-0.7993 \\ & =2.20\end{aligned}\)
