What is the pOH of a solution that has a hydronium ion concentration [H3O+] of 8.26 x 10–5 M

The pOH of the solution is 9.92

Explanation:

pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity that indicates the amount of hydrogen ions present in a solution or substance. PH is defined as the negative logarithm (base 10) of the hydronium ion concentration [H₃O⁺]:

pH= - log [H₃O⁺]

So, if [H₃O⁺]=8.26*10⁻⁵, the pH is: pH=- log (8.26*10⁻⁵) ⇒ pH= 4.08

The pOH measures the concentration of OH− ions. The following relationship can be established between pH and pOH:

pH + pOH= 14

In this case, being pH=4.08  and replacing in the relationship between pH and pOH:

4.08 + pOH=14

Solving:

pOH= 14 - 4.08

pOH= 9.92

The pOH of the solution is 9.92
