It is a little more than 7 as it is basic solution.
total concentration of OH- in the solution [OH-]=10-7(from water)+10-8(from base)=1.1×10-7
so pOH=-log(1.1×10-7)=7-log1.1
therefore pH=14-pOH=14-(7-log1.1)=7+log1.1
so pH is little more than 7

no it cant be 8 'coz [OH-] from base is comparable wid [OH-] from water...
