Answer:

pH = 9.4

Step-by-step explanation:

With the given molarity of OH⁻ species we can calculate the pOH of the solution:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = 2.6

Now we can use the pOH to calculate the pH of the solution, with the following formula:

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 14 - 2.6

pH = 9.4

So a solution containing a OH⁻ concentration of 0.0025 M has a pH of 9.4.
