Chapter 8.2, Problem 8.6PP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The $\text{pH}$ of sodium hydroxide with the concentration of $\text{1}\text{×}{\text{10}}^{\text{-2}}\text{M}$ solution has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

pH:  The $\text{pH}$ of a solution is defined as the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of the hydronium ion.

    $\text{pH}\text{=}\text{-log}{\text{[H}}_{\text{3}}{\text{O}}^{\text{+}}\text{]}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The $\text{pH}$ of sodium hydroxide with the concentration of $\text{1}\text{×}{\text{10}}^{\text{-6}}\text{M}$ solution has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:
