Question

If you made up a solution of NaOH by adding 0.010 mole of solid NaOH to 1.0 liter of distilled water, what would be the pH of the solution? pH =

Answer 1

Answer:

pH=12

Explanation:

We know that;

pOH + pH = 14

Therefore;

[H+].[OH-] = 10^-14

Thus; [H+] = 10^-14/10^-2 = 10^-12

pH = -log[H+]

pH=12.
