- The pit of an aqueous solution of NaOH is 12.9. What is the molarity of the solution?


Sagot :

Answer: The molarity of solution is 0.08 M

Explanation:

pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration. It tells abpout the acidity or basicity of a solution.

[tex]pH=-log[H^+][/tex]

also pH+pOH=14

given : pH of NaOH = 12.9

Thus pOH = (14-12.9) = 1.1

Thus [tex][OH^-]=10^{-1.1}=0.08M[/tex]

As [tex]NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-[/tex]

As 1 mole of [tex]OH^-[/tex] is produced by = 1 mole of NaOH

Thus 0.08 moles of [tex]OH^-[/tex] are produced by = [tex]\frac{1}{1}\times 0.08=0.08[/tex] moles of NaOH

The molarity of solution is 0.08 M
