PH of strong acids and strong bases
Question

When 11.2 g of KOH is added to one litre of 'X' M H2SO4 solution, the pOH of the solution becomes 13.301. Then the value of 'X' is (assume no change in the volume of solution by the addition of KOH)

Easy
Solution

Following reaction takes place

\large KOH + {H_2}S{O_4}\xrightarrow{{}}{K_2}S{O_4} + {H_2}O
\large \left( {{n_{{H^ + }}}} \right)

left after neutralisation =2×11.256

Given, POH = 13.3               

⇒ PH = 0.7

⇒ [H+] = 2 ×10-1

Thus,

\large 2 x- \frac{{11.2}}{{56}} = 2 \times {10^{ - 1}}

⇒ 2x  = 4 ×10-1

⇒ x  = 2 ×10-1
