3.1.4—pH scale question 1

[Maximum number: 1]

Chlorine undergoes many reactions.

Chlorine gas reacts with water to produce hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid.

Cl2( g)+H2O(l)HClO(aq)+HCl(aq)\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{HClO}(\mathrm{aq})+\mathrm{HCl}(\mathrm{aq})

Calculate the concentration of H+(aq)\mathrm{H}^{+}(\mathrm{aq}) in a HClO(aq) solution with a pH=3.61.
