Calculate the p-functions for each ion in a solution that is 0.40 M in HCl and 0.020 M in NaCl.

**Answer:**

The p-function can be calculated by taking the negative logarithm of the concentration of the ion multiplied by the stoichiometric number of the ion in the molecule.

1) $p(H^{+}) = p(Cl^{-}) = -\log (0.40) = 0.398$

2) $p(\mathrm{Na}^{+}) = p(\mathrm{Cl}^{-}) = -\log (0.02) = 1.699$
