A chemist dissolves 697. mg of pure potassium hydroxide in enough water to make up 160. mL of solution. Calculate the pH of the solution.
(The temperature of the solution is 25 °C.)
Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

The pH of the solution is 12.9

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

Given mass of KOH = 697 mg = 0.697 g    (Conversion factor:  1 g = 1000 mg)

Molar mass of KOH = 56 g/mol

Volume of solution = 160 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1 mole of KOH produces 1 mole of ions and 1 mole of ions

To calculate the pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate pH of the solution, we use the equation:

Hence, the pH of the solution is 12.9

hope this !

explanation:

it is important to conserve water because there is very limited amount of freshwater here on earth and if we are not smart about how we use it we will only be runnning out of our supply faster than neccessarry.
