The pHpH of a solution is equal to:

pH=log(H3O+)\begin{aligned} pH=-\log(H_3O^+) \end{aligned}

Then with pH=4.8pH=4.8, the solution is:

pH=log(H3O+)4.8=log(H3O+)4.8=log(H3O+)Take exponential form104.8=H3O+H3O+0.00001584H3O+1.6105\begin{aligned} pH&=-\log(H_3O^+)\\ 4.8&=-\log(H_3O^+) \\ -4.8&=\log(H_3O^+)\to \boxed{\text{Take exponential form}}\\ 10^{-4.8}&=H_3O^+\\ H_3O^+ &\approx 0.00001584\\ H_3O^+ &\approx 1.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \end{aligned}
