A sample of orange juice is found to have a PH of 3.80. What is the concentration of the hydroxide ion in the juice?
A
1.6 \(\times\) 10-4
B
6.3 \(\times\) 10-11
C
6.3 \(\times\) 10-4
D
1.6 \(\times\) 10-11
correct option: b
PH = - Log[ H+ ]

PH + POH =14

POH = 14 - 3.8

POH = 10.2

POH = - Log[ OH- ]

10.2 = - Log[ OH- ]

10-10.2 = [ OH- ]

[ OH- ] = 6.3 x 10-11
