The pH of 0.01 (M) KOH is 12 ; if the temperature of the given KOH solution is increased which of the following would occur ?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Since KOH is a strong electrolyte its dissociation remain unaffected, hence, [OH – ] = 10 –2
or pOH = 2 but on increasing temperature pK w < 14 or pH + pOH < 14
or pH < 12
Therefore pH would be decreased.
