The `pH` of a solution `7.00`. To this solution, sufficient base is added to increase the `pH` to `12.0`. The increase in `overset(Theta)OH` ion concentration isA. `5 times`B. `100 times`C. `10^(5)times`D. `4 times`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Initial `pH` or `pOH = 7, :. [overset(Theta)OH] = 10^(-7)M`.
Final `pH = 12, :. pOH = 2, [overset(Theta)OH] = 10^(-2)M`.
Increase in `[overset(Theta)OH] = (10^(-2))/(10^(-7)) = 10^(5)` times
