    pH value of 0.01 M \[NaOH\] solution is:

    A)  20            

    B)  14

    C)  12            

    D)  10

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: \[pOH=-\log [O{{H}^{-}}]\] \[pH+pOH=14\] Given: \[[NaOH]=0.01\,M={{10}^{-2}}M\] \[\because \] \[NaOH\] is strong base therefore it ionises completely. \[NaOH\to N{{a}^{+}}+O{{H}^{-}}\] \[{{10}^{-2}}\]     \[{{10}^{-2}}\]   \[{{10}^{-2}}\] \[\therefore \] \[[O{{H}^{-}}]={{10}^{-2}}\] \[pOH=-\log \,[O{{H}^{-}}]\] \[=-\log ({{10}^{-2}})\] = 2 \[pH+pOH=14\]   \[\therefore \] \[pH=14-pOH\] \[=14-2=12\]
