Question

Assuming complete dissociation, calculate the pH of the following solution:

0.005 M NaOH 

Numerical

Solution

\[\ce{NaOH_{(aq)} ↔ Na^+_{(aq)}  + HO^-_{(aq)}}\]

`["HO"^-] = ["NaOH"]`

`=> ["HO"^-] = 0.005`

`"pOH" = - log["HO"^(-)] = -log(0.005)`

pOH = 2.30

∴ pH = 14 - 2.30

= 11.70

Hence, the pH of the solution is 11.70.
