  • pH and pOH: take -log of concentration

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

[OH⁻] = 1 × 10⁻⁹ M

Step 2: Find pOH

Simply take negative log₁₀ of the concentration.

  1. Set up:                                                                                                             pOH = -log(1 × 10⁻⁹ M)
  2. Evaluate:                                                                                                         pOH = 9
