•

A chem paper 2 each day

If the new rate is a quarter of the old rate, that means that the new concentration of sulfuric acid is also a quarter of the old conc because it is first order.

Then find the old [H+] using pH= 0.70, which gives us 0.1995

Divide that by 4 which gives us [H+]=0.04988

And just find the pH using that
