Answer:
The pH of the solution is 8.
Explanation:
To which options are correct, let us determine the concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] and the pH of the solution. This is illustrated below:
1. The concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] can be obtained as follow:
pOH = –Log [OH-]
pOH = 6
6 = –Log [OH-]
–6 = Log [OH-]
[OH-] = Antilog (–6)
[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L
2. The pH of the solution can be obtained as follow:
pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 6
pH + 6 = 14
pH = 14 – 6
pH = 8.
From the calculations made above,
[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L
pH = 8.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
The pH of the solution is 8
