What is the pH of0.1MNaOHsolution?
Step 1: Calculation of pOH of0.1MNaOHsolution
NaOH is an effective electrolyte. In an aqueous solution, it totally dissociates.NaOH→Na++OH-Hence, OH-=[NaOH]=0.1MpOH=-logOH-⇒pOH=-log0.1⇒pOH=1
Step 2: Calculation of pH solution0.1MNaOHsolution
Now,pH=14-pOH⇒pH=14-1⇒pH=13Therefore, the pH of0.1MNaOHsolution is 13.
On adding FeCl3 solution into NaOH solution, a possitively charged colloidal sol is obtained when they are in
