Calculate the pH and pOH of the: 0.125M potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution
Added by Benjamin J.
Step 1
First, we need to find the concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) in the solution. Since KOH is a strong base, it will dissociate completely in water: KOH → K+ + OH- So, the concentration of OH- ions will be equal to the concentration of KOH: [OH-] = 0.125 M Show more…

What are the pOH and the pH of a 0.0125-M solution of potassium hydroxide;
Adi S.
Determine the concentration of OH-, pH, and pOH of a KOH solution made by mixing 0.251 g KOH with enough water to make 1.00 x 10^2 mL of solution. Molar mass KOH = 56.1056 g/mol. Concentration of OH-, pH, pOH. EACH OF YOUR ANSWERS SHOULD BE ROUNDED TO THREE DECIMAL PLACES AND SHOULD BE ENTERED WITHOUT UNITS.
