This is similar to calculating the pH of a solution so this is true

Answer: true

Step-by-step explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pOH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydroxyl ion concentration.

Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9, bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14 and neutral solutions have pH equal to 7.


pH=-\log [H^+]


pOH=\log[OH^-]


[OH]^-=10^(-pOH)

Thus the statement that
[OH]^- of a solution can be found by taking the antilog of the negative pOH value is True.
