Answer:
The answer to your question is pH = 9.2; [OH] = 1.58 x 10⁻⁵
Explanation:
Data
[H⁺] = 6.0 x 10⁻¹⁰ M
pH = ?
pH definition. pH measures the hydrogen concentration. pH measures the acidity and the alkalinity of a solution. A solution is acid if the pH goes from 0 to 6.9, a neutral solution has a pH of 7 and an alkali solution has a pH from 7.1 to 14.
pOH measures the [OH⁻] concentration
Formula
pH = -log[H⁺]
pH + pOH = 14
-Substitution
pH = -log[6 x 10⁻¹⁰]
-Simplification
pH = - (-9.2)
pH = 9.2
-Calculate pOH
pOH = 14 - pH
pOH = 14 - 9.2
pOH = 4.8
-Calculate the concentration of OH⁻
pOH = -log[OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = -antilog4.8
[OH] = 1.58 x 10⁻⁵
