From TPRH (Pg 370, Question 5):
If 90% of 1.0 M NaOH is neutralized during the dissolution of HCl gas, then the pH of the final solution is:
A) 0.9
B) 7.0
C) 8.0
D) 13.0
The answer is D.
Can anyone explain their steps in getting this answer? I read the answer key, but don't really understand.
My steps were the following: Because 10% of NaOH remains, the solution will be basic (so the answer is either C or D). But I don't know how to solve it from here .. help! Thanks!
