0.195 moles of Ba(OH)2 in 1250.0 mLs H2O

How do I find these values:

pH = ?

pOH = ?

[OH -1] = ?

[H +1] = ?

and also, is it Acidic or Basic?

  1. n(Ba(OH)2)= 0,195 mol

    V(H2O)= 1250,0 mL=1,250L

    n=cV   c=n/V

    c(Ba(OH)2)=0,195 mol/1,250L=0,156mol/L

    Ba(OH)2-------> (Ba^2+) + 2OH^ -1

    you see that the concentration of OH is twice bigger than that one of Ba(OH)2, so c(OH^ -1)=0,312

    pOH= - logc(OH^ -1)= -log 0,312= 0,5

    pKw=pH+pOH

    pKw=14 because Kw= 1x10^-14

    pH=pKw-pOH

    pH=14-0.5

    pH=13,5 it is basic

    c(H^+1)= 10^-ph

    c(H^+1)= 10^(-13,5)=3,6x10^-14

    something like that
