What is the pH of 10ml of 0.1M NH3, with 5ml of 0.1M of HCL. kb=1.8*10^-5
no of moles of NH3 = molarity * volume in L
= 0.1*0.01 = 0.001 moles
no of moles of HCl = molarity * volume in L
= 0.1*0.005 = 0.0005 moles
NH3(aq) + HCl (aq) -------------> NH4Cl(aq)
I 0.001 0.0005 0
C -0.0005 -0.0005 0.0005
E 0.0005 0 0.0005
Pkb = -logkb
= -log1.8*10^-5
= 4.75
POH = Pkb + log[NH4Cl]/[NH3]
= 4.75 + log0.0005/0.0005
= 4.75 + log1
= 4.75
PH = 14-POH
= 14-4.75 = 9.25 >>>>>answer
