Solution

Given: [OH–] = `2.87 xx 10^-4` M

To find: pH of the solution

Formulae: 

i. pOH = –log10[OH–]

ii. pH + pOH = 14

Calculation:

From formula (i),

pOH = –log10[OH–]

∴ pOH = –log10[2.87 × 10–4]

= –log102.87 – log1010–4

∴ –log102.87 + 4 = 4 – 0.4579

pOH = 3.5421

From formula (ii),

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 – pOH

= 14 – 3.5421

= 10.4579

pH of the solution is 10.4579
