NEETChemistryIonic EquilibrumMCQ+4 / −1
A buffer solution is prepared in which the concentration of NH3 is 0.30 M and the concentration of NH+4 is 0.20 M. If the equilibrium constant, Kb for NH3 equals 1.8 105, what is the pH of this solution? (log 2.7 = 0.43)
- A9.08
- B9.43
- C11.72
- D8.73

Correct answer: B
pOH = pKb + log
= – log Kb + log
= – log 1.8× 10–5 + log
= 5 – 0.25 + (–0.176) = 4.57
Now, pH = 14 – pOH = 14 – 4.57 = 9.43
