Solution

The pH of 10−8 M of HCl is less than 7.

Explanation:

When the concentrations of H+ from acid and water are comparable, the concentration of H+ from water cannot be ignored in an extremely diluted acidic solution.

[H+] = 10−8 + 10−7

= 10−8 (1 + 10)

= 11 × 10−8

= −log (11 × 10−8)

= 8 − log 11

= 8 − 1.04

= 6.96
