The question is asking which statement is correct if the pOH of a solution is 6.0. The potential of Hydrogen ( or pH ) specifies the acidity or the basicity of an aqueous solution. With pH less than 7 solutions are acidic and with pH greater than 7 they are basic. But pOH is a measure of the concentration of hidroxide ions. Also: pOH + pH = 14. Therefore: pH = 14 - 6.0 = 8.0. For pH = 8.0 this solution is the weak base. Answer: the weak base.
