Relation between pH and pOH:
We space know comma space space open square brackets straight H subscript 3 straight O to the power of plus close square brackets space open square brackets OH to the power of minus close square brackets space equals space straight K subscript straight w space equals space 1 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 14 end exponent
Taking logarithm on both sides,
log space open square brackets straight H subscript 3 straight O to the power of plus close square brackets space space plus space log space open square brackets OH to the power of minus close square brackets space equals space log space left parenthesis 1 space cross times space 10 to the power of negative 14 end exponent right parenthesis
log space open square brackets straight H subscript 3 straight O to the power of plus close square brackets space plus space log space open square brackets OH to the power of minus close square brackets space equals space minus 14 space
space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space space open square brackets because space log space 10 space equals space 1 close square brackets
or space space space space space space minus log space open square brackets straight H subscript 3 straight O to the power of plus close square brackets space minus space log space open square brackets OH to the power of minus close square brackets space space equals space 14
