  • Calculate pOH from pH: A Simple Chemistry Guide
    Here's how to calculate pOH from a given pH:

    Understanding the Relationship

    * pH + pOH = 14 This is a fundamental relationship in chemistry. It's based on the auto-ionization of water (H₂O).

    Calculation

    1. Start with the pH: pH = 6.2

    2. Use the equation: pOH = 14 - pH

    3. Substitute and solve: pOH = 14 - 6.2 = 7.8

    Answer: The pOH of a solution with a pH of 6.2 is 7.8.
