NEETChemistryIonic Equilibrium
In dilute solutions (< 0.01 M), what is the relationship between the activity of hydrogen ions (H+) and molarity ([H+])?
Options
- AActivity of hydrogen ion is always greater than molarity.
- BActivity of hydrogen ion is always less than molarity.
- CActivity of hydrogen ion is equal in magnitude to molarity.
- DActivity of hydrogen ion has no relationship with molarity.
Correct answer
C. Activity of hydrogen ion is equal in magnitude to molarity.
Step-by-step solution
In dilute solutions (< 0.01 M), the activity of hydrogen ions (H+) is equal in magnitude to the molarity ([H+]).
