### Calculate the \([\text{OH}^-]\) of the solution with pH = 10.50

- ⭕ 3.2 x 10\(^{-10}\) 
- ⭕ 1.05 x 10\(^{-10}\) 
- ⭕ 5.0 x 10\(^{-10}\) 
- ⭕ 3.2 x 10\(^{-4}\) 

---

This question prompts students to calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions \([\text{OH}^-]\) given the pH of a solution. Students should apply their understanding of the pH and pOH relationship, which is governed by the equation:

\[ \text{pOH} = 14 - \text{pH} \]

Once the pOH is calculated, the hydroxide ion concentration can be determined using:

\[ [\text{OH}^-] = 10^{-\text{pOH}} \]

This exercise helps reinforce key principles of acid-base chemistry and the logarithmic nature of the pH and pOH scales.
