1) Ca(OH)2 is a strong base; that means it totally dissociates in water, in the following way:
Where the equilibrium equilibrium is extremely displaced towards the products and the reaction is considered to occur fully. That is: Ca(OH)2 dissociation can be considered complete.
2) This last means that the equilibrium constant is enormous in this case. It can actually be considered as infinitely large.
3) To calculate the concentration of OH-, we must bear in mind that each mole of Ca(OH)2 that is dissolved results in 2 moles of hydroxide ions. Which means that their concentration will be double the original concentration of Ca(OH)2. In this case:
pOH is calculated as:
4) pH can be calculated directly from pOH by using the relation:
So:
5) This is the reverse of what we just did. If pH is 9.25, then pOH is:
And the concentration of OH- is given by:
And, as we saw, the concentration of Ca(OH)2 is half the concentration of OH-, so:
