A dilute solution of

\mathrm{HCl}

contains

\left[\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{O}^{+}\right]=5.4 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~L}^{-1}

298 \mathrm{~K}

. What is the concentration of hydroxyl ions in this solution?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

1.8 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~L}^{-1}

Option B (

1.8 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{~L}^{-1}

) is correct because it is calculated using the ion product of water (

K_w

) and the given hydronium ion concentration.
