    PH scale is used to determine how acidic, neutral or basic a solution is.

    pH can be calculated using the following equation

    pH = - log[H⁺]

    HNO₃ is a strong acid therefore completely dissociates into its ions as follows

    HNO₃ - - > H⁺ + NO₃⁻

    1 mol of HNO₃ dissociates to produce 1 mol of H⁺ ions

    Therefore [HNO₃] = [H⁺]

    [H⁺] = 0.150 M

    since concentration has been given, its not necessary to consider the volume as concentration is constant throughout the whole solution

    pH = - log (0.150 M)

    pH = 0.82

    the pH of solution is 0.82
