Re: pH sig figs
most of the time sig figs for pH only go to one decimal place after the whole number

Re: pH sig figs
Does this work the other way around too? If we were given a H3O+ concentration of 1.56 x 10^-4 where there are 3 sig figs, would we have to write the pH as 3.807 or as 3.81 ?

Re: pH sig figs
During one of the review sessions they said that sig figs for pH count after the decimal so 12.22 has 2 sig figs.
