  1. Question 1

    Q1. A student finds that a hydrochloric acid solution has a concentration of 0.0001 M. What is the pOH of this solution at 25°C?

    • A) 4
    • B) 7
    • C) 10
    • D) 14

    Answer: 10

    Explanation: HCl is a strong acid; [H+] = 10⁻⁴ M. pH = 4, so pOH = 14 - 4 = 10. Option A is the pH value, not the pOH.
