MCQ
What is the $pH$ of $Ba{(OH)_2}$ if normality is  $10$
  • A
    $4$
  • $10$
  • C
    $7$
  • D
    $9$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$10$
(b) $Ba{(OH)_2} ⇌ B{a^{2 + }} + 2O{H^ - }$

One molecule on dissociation furnishes $2O{H^ - }$ ions.

So, $[O{H^ - }] = 2 \times {10^{ - 4}}N$

$N = M \times 2$ ; $M = \frac{N}{2} = \frac{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 4}}}}{2} = {10^{ - 4}}$

$pOH  = - \log [O{H^ - }] = - \log (1 \times {10^{ - 4}}) = - 4$

$pH + pOH = 14$; $pH = 14 - 4 = 10$.
