Answer: Option C) 9.5

Explanation:

Given that,

pOH of solution = ?

pH of solution = 4.5 (it is an acidic solution because any pH values less than 7.0 is said to be acidic)

Recall that pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in the solution while pOH is the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration in the solution.

Hence, pH + pOH = 14

4.5 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 4.5

pOH = 9.5

Thus, the pOH of the same solution is 9.5

I'd say that his comb has a static electricity charge. It can either be negative, or positive. Let's just say it's positive, and the water is negatively charged. This means that it will affect the water flow when the two charges meet. I hope this helps! ~Mia
