pH at 25 degrees Celsius
Not what you're looking for?
A hydrogen electrode (PH2 = 1.00 atm), a salt bridge, and a calomel electrode (E=0.280 V) are used to determine the pH of a solution. If the combination (i.e. a solution, the hydrogen electrode and the calomel electrode) gives a voltage of 0.790 V, what is the pH of the solution at 25 degrees Celsius?

The potential of hydrogen electrode in contact with a solution of H+ ions involving the reaction is given by
H+ + e-↔1/2 H2(1atm)
Potential of this electrode is given by Nernst equation
Eel=E0el + 2.303RT/Flog[ H+]/[H2] since PH2 = 1 ...
