Ans: we can find the pH of the solution as-
pH of solution A=6
Hence, concentration of [[{{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}]] ion in solution A=$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-6}}}$$\text{mol }{{\text{L}}^{\text{-1}}}$
pH of solution B=4
Therefore, concentration of [{{\text[{H}]}^{\text{+}}}] ion in solution B=$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$$\text{mol }{{\text{L}}^{\text{-1}}}$
On mixing one litre of each solution, total volume = 1L+1L=2L.
Amount of ${{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}$ ions in 1L of solution
A= concentration× Volume(V)= $\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-6}}}$mol× IL
Amount of ${{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}$ ions in 1L of solution B=$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$mol×1L
∴ Total amount of ${{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}$ ions in the solution formed by mixing solutions A and B is ($\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-5}}}$mol+$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$mol)
This amount is present in 2L solution,
∴ Total \[{{\text{H}}^{\text{+}}}\]=2$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$ (1+0.01)=21.01×$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$$\text{mol }{{\text{L}}^{\text{-1}}}$
=21.01×$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-4}}}$$\text{mol }{{\text{L}}^{\text{-1}}}$ =0.5×10−4mol L−1 =5×$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-5}}}$$\text{mol }{{\text{L}}^{\text{-1}}}$.
pH=−log[{{\text[{H}]}^{\text{+}}}]=−log(5×$\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{-5}}}$)=−[log5+(−5log10)]
=−log5+5=5−log5=5−0.6990=4.3010=4.3
Thus, the pH of the solution will be 4.3.
