The pOH of a solution is calculated using the formula pOH = -log[OH-]. For a solution of HNOS (a hypothetical compound), we first need to determine its dissociation in water. Assuming it dissociates completely and releases OH- ions (as the question seems to imply it's a base given we're asked for pOH), the concentration of OH- ions would be equal to the concentration of the HNOS solution, which is 0.033 M. Therefore, pOH = -log(0.033) = 12.52.
