Answer:

pH = 8.314

Explanation:

  • Y(OH)3(s) ↔ Y+  +  3OH-

equil:   S               S         3S

∴ Ksp = [ Y+ ] * [ OH- ]³ = 6.0 E-24

⇒ 6.0 E-24 = ( S )*( 3S )³

⇒ 6.0 E-24 = 27S∧4

⇒ 2.22 E-25 = S∧4

⇒ ( 2.22 E-25 )∧(1/4) = S

⇒ S = 6.866 E-7 M

⇒ [ OH- ] = 3*S =2.06 E-6 M

⇒ pOH = - Log [ OH- ]

⇒ pOH = - Log ( 2.06 E-6 )

⇒ pOH = 5.686

∴ pH = 14 - pOH

⇒ pH = 8.314
