Question #54a51

Answer 1

Here's the details.

Explanation:

Acidity or alkalinity of a certain solution is expressed either by `color(red)(pH)` value or by `color(blue)(pOH)` value.

Now, whether the solution is acidic or alkaline in nature depends upon the concentration of hydronium `color(red)([H_3O^+])` or hydroxyl `color(red)([OH^-])` ions.

Now, `color(red)([H_3O^+]=[H^+])`

Now, `color(red)(pH=-log[H_3O^+]=-log[H^+])`.

&, `color(blue)(pOH=-log[OH^-])`.

For additional information,
`pH+pOH=14`

Hope it Helps:)
