What will be OH- concentration in an aqueous solution having pH = 8?
The formula to calculate pOH is as follows:
pOH = -log10[OH-]
Also, the relation between pH and pOH is: pH + pOH = 14
Therefore, pOH = 14- 8 = 6
Now, using the formula of pOH:
6 = -log10[OH-]
Therefore, the concentration of hydroxide ions is 1 x 10-6 M.
