    A solution of an acid has\[[{{H}^{+}}]=2\times {{10}^{-5}}\]. Find out the concentration of \[O{{H}^{-}}\] ions.

    A) \[5\times {{10}^{-10}}N\]

    B) \[4\times {{10}^{-10}}N\] 

    C)  \[2\times {{10}^{-5}}N\]

    D)  \[9\times {{10}^{-4}}N\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[[{{H}^{+}}][O{{H}^{-}}]={{K}_{w}}\]                 \[2\times {{10}^{-5}}\times [O{{H}^{-}}]=1\times {{10}^{-14}}\]                 \[[O{{H}^{-}}]=\frac{1\times {{10}^{-14}}}{2\times {{10}^{-5}}}\]                 \[=0.5\times {{10}^{-9}}\]                 \[=5\times {{10}^{-10}}\]
