Answer:
It is basic and has a pH of 9.8.
Explanation:
pOH = 4.2
we will determine its pH.
pOH + pH = 14
pH = 14 - pOH
pH = 14 - 4.2
pH = 9.8
According to pH scale the the pH lower than 7 is consider acidic while pH of seven is neutral and pH greater than 7 is basic.
The given solution has pH 9.8 it means it is basic.
