The pH of the solution is the negative log of the hydronium ion concentration, or 2.22.
(4) What is the pOH of the solution?
The pOH of the solution is the negative log of the concentration of the hydroxide ions, or 11.78. The pOH can also be calculated by subtracting the pH from 14.
Hydrolysis occurs when a salt dissolved in water reacts with the water molecules and causes them to ionize.
