Answer: The pH of solution is 10.

The pOH of the solution is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ion.

As given concentration of acidic solution is
1.00 * 10^(-10) M. Therefore, pH of the solution is calculated as follows.


pH = -log [H^(+)]\\= -log (1.00 * 10^(-10))\\= 10

The relation between pH and pOH is as follows.

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

= 14 - 10

= 4

Thus, we an conclude that pH of solution is 10 and pOH of the solution is 4.
