Considering the definition of pOH and strong base, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14
The pOH (or potential OH) is a measure of the basicity or alkalinity of a solution and indicates the concentration of ion hydroxide (OH-).
pOH is expressed as the logarithm of the concentration of OH⁻ ions, with the sign changed:
pOH= - log [OH⁻]
On the other hand, a strong base is that base that in an aqueous solution completely dissociates between the cation and OH-.
LiOH is a strong base, so the concentration of the hydroxide will be equal to the concentration of OH-. This is:
[LiOH]= [OH-]= 0.073 M
Replacing in the definition of pOH:
pOH= -log (0.073 M)
<u><em>pOH= 1.14 </em></u>
In summary, the pOH of the aqueous solution is 1.14

The general process for coal mining and refining is option C.
Coal mining is carried out by two main processes based on the depth, quality, thickness, and structure of coal seam. Based on the depth, coal seam of less than 180ft to the surface is surface mined while coal seems between 180ft.-300ft. are deep mined. The coal mined is transported to a nearby processing plant using a conveyor, train, ship, etc. where it is washed to remove other component like dirt, sulphur, rocks, etc. and afterwards dried.
