2. 2. Determine the pH and pOH of
A) M KOH
[OH-] = 1 x 10-3 pOH = pH = 11.0
B) M HCl
[H+] = 1 x 10-4 pH = pOH = 10.0

3. 3. pH = -log [H+] pH + pOH = 14
pOH = -log [OH-]
[H+] = 5.0 x 10-6 pH = 5.3
b) [OH-] = 2.0 x 10-5 pOH = 4.7 pH = 9.3
c) [H+] = 8.3 x pH = 9.1
d) [OH-] = 4.5 x pOH = 10.3 pH = 3.7

4. 4. -log [10-X] = X
a) pH = 4 [H+] = 1 x 10-4 M
b) pH = 11 [H+] = 1 x M
c) pH = 8 [H+] = 1 x 10-8 M
5. pH + pOH = 14
a) pH=6 pOH = 8 [OH-] = 1 x 10-8 M
b) pH =9 pOH = 5 [OH-] = 1 x 10-5 M
c) pH = 12 pOH = 2 [OH-] = 1 x 10-2 M
