Answer:

b) pH = 9.25

Explanation:

  • NH4+(aq)  +  H2O(l)  ↔  NH3(aq)  +  H3O+(aq)
  • NH3 + H2O ↔ NH4+  +  OH-
  • 2 H2O ↔ H3O+  +  OH-

⇒ Kb = [ NH4+ ] * [ OH- ] / [ NH3 ] = 1.86 E-5......from literature

mass balance NH4+:

⇒ M NH4+ = [ NH4+ ] - [ OH- ]

∴ [ NH3 ] ≅ M NH4+ = 0.26 M

⇒ Kb = (( 0.26 + [ OH- ] )) * [ OH- ] / 0.26 = 1.86 E-5

⇒ 0.26 [ OH-] + [ OH- ]² = 4.836 E-6

⇒ [ OH- ]² + 0.26 [ OH- ] - 4.836 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ OH- ] = 1.859 E-5 M

⇒ pOH = - Log ( 1.859 E-5 )

⇒ pOH = 4.7305

⇒ pH = 14 - pOH = 9.269
