Problem

A data table lists Kw=6.6×10−15K_w = 6.6 \times 10^{-15} at 10∘C10^\circ\text{C} and Kw=1.0×10−14K_w = 1.0 \times 10^{-14} at 25∘C25^\circ\text{C}. Assuming that log⁡10Kw\log_{10} K_w changes linearly with temperature over this interval, estimate the pH of neutral water at 18∘C18^\circ\text{C}.
