Question

Calculate the pH of the following solution:  

0.3 g of NaOH dissolved in water to give 200 mL of solution.

Numerical

Solution

For 0.3 g of NaOH dissolved in water to give 200 mL of solution:

\[\ce{NaOH -> Na^+_{(aq)} + OH^-_{(aq)}}\]

`["NaOH"] = 0.3 xx 1000/200 = 1.5 "M"`

`["OH"_("aq")^-] = 1.5 "M"`

Then `["H"^+] = 10^(-14)/1.5`

`= 6.66 xx 10^(-13)`

`"pH" = - log(6.66  xx 10^(-13))`

=  12.18
