Answer is: pH value of acetic acid is 2.2.
Chemical reaction: CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
Ka(
CH₃COOH) = 1,8·10⁻⁵.
c(
CH₃COOH) = 2,2 M
[
CH₃COO⁻] = [H⁺] = x.
Ka = [
CH₃COO⁻] · [H⁺] / [CH₃COOH].
1,8·10
⁻⁵ = x² / (2,2 M - x).
Solve quadratic equation: x =
 [H⁺] = 0,0063 M.
pH = -log[H
⁺].
pH = -log(0,0063 M).
pH = 2,2.
