Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

The question is based on the concept of PH and pOH calculations.

pH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydronium Ion concentration.

while pOH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydroxide ion concentration of the solution.

Step 2

[H+] = 7.7*10-7 M

pH = -log[H+]

= -log ( 7.7*10-7 )

= 6.12

Step 3

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 - 6.11

= 7.89
