pH = -log(3.05 x 10^-9)
Use a calculator. The pH should be between 8 and 9 (looking at the exponent).
The pH of a solution is given by the formula pH = -log H+ , where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions in moles
per liter in the solution. Use this formula to solve the problem. Round answer to one decimal place if necessary.
