At 40 °C, the ion-product constant of water is Kw=2.92×10−14K_w = 2.92 \times 10^{-14}. A student dissolves 5.00 g of KOH\mathrm{KOH} (molar mass 56.11 g mol−1^{-1}) in enough water to make 750.0 mL of solution at this temperature. Assuming complete dissociation, what is the pH of the solution at 40 °C? a) 13.0813.08 b) 12.4912.49 c) 12.6112.61 d) 12.9512.95
