Question

What is the pOH if the ph=9.7

Answer 1

pOH = 4.3

Step-by-step explanation:

pOH + pH = 14... Always

14-9.7 = 4.3

Answer 2

4.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

pH = 9.7

pOH =?

The pH and pOH are related by the following equation:

pH + pOH = 14

With the above equation, we can obtain the pOH as follows:

pH + pOH = 14

9.7 + pOH = 14

Collect like terms

pOH = 14 - 9.7

pOH = 4.3

From the calculation made above, the pOH is 4.3
