This video picks up from MCAT Math Part 8 – Logs and Negative Logs showing you how to solve questions where the log value is provided. Instead you're asked to solve for the anti-log value in questions relating to ion concentration and Ka values.
Anti-logs, just like logarithms, are difficult to calculation without a calculator UNLESS you know the tricks and shortcuts to apply. Watch the video below to learn how to tackle these MCAT style questions.
