Re: pH on final

i think a lot of questions are up for grabs, but you just got to know that given a certain situation, how could you find the molarity of H+ ?

the appropriate amount of sigfigs to use in an answer is the least amount of sigfigs. so if a question has 3 values, 3.08, 4.204 and 9.02, 3 sigfigs are the appropriate amount to use in your result. hope this makes sense!
