    Option D

    Explanation:

    A solution is neutral if it contains equal concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions; acidic if it contains a greater concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions; and basic if it contains a lesser concentration of hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.

    A common means of expressing quantities, the values of which may span many orders of magnitude, is to use a logarithmic scale.

    The hydroxide ion molarity may be expressed as a p-function, or pOH.

    pOH = - log[OH-]

    Basic solutions are those with hydronium ion molarities less than 1.0 * 10-7 M and hydroxide ion molarities greater than 1.0 * 10-7 M (corresponding to pH values greater than 7.00 and pOH values less than 7.00).
