pH calculation from calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂)
Calcium hydroxide is a strong base that dissociates completely in water:
Given is a net ion charge of:
Since each unit of Ca(OH)₂ provides two OH⁻ ions, the result is:
From this, we calculate the pOH value:
And finally:
Ergebnis: Die Lösung hat einen pH-Wert von ungefähr 12.43.
