Answer:

0.01348 M (mol L-1)

Explanation:

Water can be autoionized:

H2O + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + OH-

This a reversible reaction and then it has a unique constant Kw that at 25ºC it takes the value of 10^-14

[tex]10^{-14} =[H_{3} O+][OH-][/tex]

pH is the concentration of [H3O+] ions in a logaritmic scale:

[tex]pH = -log([H_{3}O+][/tex]

Then you can solve for the [OH-]

[tex][OH-]=(Kw)/(10^{-pH})=(10^{-14})/(10^{-12.03})=0.01348 M[/tex]

Hope it helps!
