Solution

The pH of a solution can be calculated using the formula:

pH = -log[H+]

Where [H+] is the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution.

In this case, the solution is 6 x 10^-5 M HBr. HBr is a strong acid, which means it completely dissociates in water to form H+ and Br- ions. Therefore, the concentration of H+ ions is also 6 x 10^-5 M.

Substituting this into the formula gives:

pH = -log(6 x 10^-5)

Calculating this gives a pH of approximately 4.22.

So, the pH of the solution is around 4.22.
