Correct answer: D
Kw at 25oC = 1 × 10–14
At 25ºC
Kw = [H+] [OH–] = 10–14
At 100°C (given)
Kw = [H+] [OH–] = 55 × 10–14
for a neutral solution
[H+] = [OH–]
[H+]2 = 55 × 10–14
or [H+] = (55 × 10–14)1/2
pH = – log [H+]
On taking log on both side
– log [H+] = –log (55 × 10–14)1/2
pH = -
log55 - 14log10
pH = 6.13
