Calculate the pOH of 0.0001 NaOH in water

pOH = 4

Explanation:

NaOH is a strong base which means that it dissociates completely in water. It will break apart into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions.

NaOH ⇒ Na⁺ + OH⁻

Because NaOH dissociates completely into its respective ions in water, the moles of NaOH is equal to the moles of hydroxide ions. So, [OH⁻] = 0.0001 M.

Now to find the pOH, use the formula pOH = -log[OH⁻].

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

= -log(0.0001)

= 4

The pOH of the solution is 4.

Hope that helps.
