Answer:
11·699
Explanation:
Given the concentration of hydroxide ion in the solution is 5 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] M
Assuming the temperature at which it is asked to find the pH of the solution be 298 K
∴ pOH of the given solution = - log(5 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] = -0·699 + 3 = 2·301
pH of the given solution = 14 - 2·301 = 11·699
∴ pH of the solution = 11·699
