BRAINLIES If a solution has pOH of 5.2 the pH of the solution is?
A. 0.17
B. 5.2
C. 6x10-6
D. 8.8

D 8.8

Explanation:

To solve this question you must know that, using the kw equation:

Kw = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [H⁺] [OH⁻]

-log 1x10⁻¹⁴ = -log ([H⁺] [OH⁻])

14= -log [H⁺] + -log [OH⁻]

As pH = -log[H⁺] and pOH = -log [OH⁻]

we can obtain the equation:

pH = 14 - pOH

As the pOH of the solution is 5.2:

pH = 14 - 5.2

pH = 8.8

Right option is:

i believe the answer is true.
