Answer:

Explanations:

The formula for calculating the pH of the solution is given as:

[tex]pH=-log[H_3O^+][/tex]

Given that the pH is 2, then;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2=-log[H_3O^+] \\ log[H_3O^+]=-2 \\ [H_3O^+]=10^{-2} \\ [H_3O^+]=0.01M \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence the concentration of the hydronium ion is 0.01M

Since the pH of the solution is less than 7, hence the solution is acidic
