ph when [OH-] is 6.71x10-5M

1 answer

To calculate the pH when the hydroxide ion concentration is 6.71x10^-5 M, we first need to find the pOH by taking the negative logarithm of the hydroxide ion concentration:

pOH = -log(6.71x10^-5)
pOH = 4.17

Since pH + pOH = 14, we can now calculate the pH:

pH = 14 - pOH
pH = 14 - 4.17
pH = 9.83

Therefore, when the hydroxide ion concentration is 6.71x10^-5 M, the pH of the solution is 9.83.
