Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!

The formula for finding the pH of  0.0035 M Ba(OH)2  is  =  14.000 - (- log [OH^(-1) moles])

I assume Barium Hydroxide is a strong base.  Therefore all the hydroxide ions ionize.

0.0035 * 2 = 0.007 moles of OH, because each molecule of Ba(OH)2  has 2 hydroxide ions.

pH of this solution = 14 - (-log [0.007]) = 14 - (2.1549) = 11.845 pH

Answer choice D ) 11.85

Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
