Answer:

[tex][OH^-]=1.7x10^{-6}M[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the pOH of a solution can be computed when knowing the pH as shown below:

[tex]pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-8.22=5.78[/tex]

And therefore, the concentration of hydroxide ions based on the definition of pH:

[tex][OH^-]=10^{-pOH}[/tex]

In such a way, we obtain:

[tex][OH^-]=10^{-5.78}=1.7x10^{-6}M[/tex]
