1) the equal concentrations of H+ and OH- ions only occurs once, in neutral water.
2) if pH = -log(H+), then pOH = -log(OH-). Plug and solve
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it would be 7 for #1
thomaster (thomaster):
yes neutral is around pH 7 :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what does -log stand for?

the logarithm function, on a calculator
thomaster (thomaster):
negative logaritm?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it would be 1 x 10-2 (-log) ?
OpenStudy (jfraser):
you need to know how your own calculator functions. the answer you get will depend on how your calculator interprets what you punch in. on mine, i type:\[-\log(1*10^{-2})\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I get error

its 2 right?
thomaster (thomaster):
first type -
then press the log button
probably this will appear -log(
then you type 1*10^-2 and then enter
you can also type 10E-2
OpenStudy (jfraser):
the correct answer is 2, but you still need to know how your calculator functions
thomaster (thomaster):
wow there is 1 zero too much in last post :P
its 1E-2 not 10E-2 xD
