Chapter 15, Problem 15.37QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The $\text{pH}$ of a $1.33\times {10}^{-9}\text{M}$ solution of $\text{LiOH}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The potential of ${\text{H}}^{\text{+}}$ ions is called as $\text{pH}$ and the potential of ${\text{OH}}^{-}$ ions is called as $\text{pOH}$. The value of $\text{pH}$ is less than $7$ for acidic solutions and greater than $7$ for basic solutions. For neutral solution the value of $\text{pH}$ is $7$.

To determine: The $\text{pH}$ of a $1.33\times {10}^{-9}\text{M}$ solution of $\text{LiOH}$.
