    pH = 5.06, solution is acidic

    Explanation:

    pH = - log [H+]

    we are given, [H+] as 8.7 x 10^-6M

    Therefore;

    pH = - log (8.7 x 10^-6 M)

    = 5.06

    pH = 5.06

    But a solution with a pH of, 1-6 is acidic, while a pH of 7 is neutral and that of 8-14 is basic.

    Thus; a pH of 5.06 is acidic
