An aqueous solution of strong monoacidic base is of \(1 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{M}\). What is the value of pH at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \cdot\) ?

  1. A 7
  2. B 4
  3. C 3
  4. D 10
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 10

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} \mathrm{pOH} & =-\log _{10}\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right] \\ & =-\log _{10}\left(1 \times 10^{-4}\right)=-(-4)=4 \\ \therefore \quad \mathrm{pH} & =14-\mathrm{pOH}=14-4=10\end{aligned}\)
