00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.047
Here is the problem: Find the pH of a solution with [OH to the power minus ] equals 0.2 M.

2
00:00:07.497 --> 00:00:15.938
Convert between hydrogen ion concentration, hydroxide concentration, pH and pOH in water at 25 °C.

3
00:00:16.737 --> 00:00:19.419
pOH from the hydroxide concentration.

4
00:00:19.869 --> 00:00:20.833
pH.

5
00:00:21.283 --> 00:00:30.501
pOH and [OH to the power minus ] (25 °C, Kw equals 1.0 times 10 to the power minus 14).

6
00:00:31.301 --> 00:00:47.334
So the answer is pH equals 13.3, pOH equals 0.699, [H to the power plus ] equals 5 times 10 to the power negative 14 M, [OH to the power minus ] equals 0.2 M (basic).

7
00:00:47.784 --> 00:01:00.880
pH is a logarithmic scale: each unit is a tenfold change in hydrogen ion concentration. Below 7 the solution is acidic, above 7 it is basic, at 25 °C.

8
00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:12.280
[H to the power plus ][OH to the power minus ] equals 1 times 10 to the power negative 14 approximately 1.0 times 10 to the power negative 14.

9
00:01:12.730 --> 00:01:14.170
The solution is basic.
