Question

Calculate the [OH] in a 1.0M solution of nitric acid

Answer 1

you just need to calculate the pH (concentration of H+) and then substract 14-pH and then you get pOH and reversly calculate concentration of OH

Answer 2

because its out of 14, right
so the 14-ph giving you the poh

Answer 3

yes you got it

Answer 4

i have a quick question...

Answer 5

usually, they would give me in scientific notation for the molarity. If they give me 1.0M, would i do -Log ( 1) = the pH , then 14- my pH?

Answer 6

because when doing ph calculations, im not used to just 1.0 M , so would that still be right?

Answer 7

yes it is still right cause 1M is 1 mol dm-3

Answer 8

dm?

Answer 9

cubic decimeters

Answer 10

wait, i'm confused... so i did -Log(1) which is 0. Then i used 14-0 = 14...that can't be right

Answer 11

yes it can and it is 0,1... that is a common misconception that pH is from 0-14 cause it can be under 0 and over 14 but i dont think they teach you that...

Answer 12

My teacher said it was just 0-14. And what is 0.1? the pH? My teacher wrote
