Respuesta :
The molarity of a Ba(OH)2 solution required to prepare a1.0 OH- solution is calculated as follows
write the equation for dissociation of Ba(Oh)2
that is,
Ba(Oh)2 -----> Ba^2+ + 2Oh-
by use of reacting ratio between Ba(Oh)2 to Oh which is 1:2 the molarity of Ba(oh)2 = 1.0/2 = 0.5 M

Answer: The molarity of the solution of barium hydroxide is 0.5 mol/L.
Explanation:
[tex]Ba(OH)_2\rightarrow Ba^{2+}+2OH^-[/tex]
Given , concentration of hydroxide ion = [tex][OH^-]=1.0 M[/tex]
1.0 M of hydroxide ion means that 1 mole of hydroxide ion is present in 1 L solution.
According to reaction 1 mole of barium hydroxide gives 2 moles of hydroxide ions.
Then, 1 mole of hydroxide ion will be given by:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 1 moles=0.5 moles[/tex] of barium hydroxide
Since, there are 1 mole of hydroxide ions present 1 L of water and 0.5 moles of barium hydroxide in 1 L.
So, the molarity of the solution of barium hydroxide is 0.5 mol/L.
