The pOH of the ammonia (NH₃) solution is 2.74.

Calculation:

We will start by composing a balanced ionization of NH₃ in aqueous.

NH₃(aq) + H₂O (l) → NH₄⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

We'll also measure each compound's concentration at the end of the process.

NH₃ will partially dissociate. The quantity of NH3's dissociates can be disregarded. The concentration of NH₃ there at the final reaction is then nearly identical to that at the beginning reaction. NH₃ has a final concentration of 0.188 M.

NH₃≈ 0.188 M

As NH₄⁺ and OH ⁻ have the same ratio, then

[NH₄⁺]= [OH ⁻]

To determine the expression for the concentration of [OH] ions, we shall organize the accordance with the applicable (base constant) for the process into a written form.

Kb = ([NH₄][OH⁻]) / [NH₃]

Hence, the concentration of [NH₄⁺] can be written in the form of [OH⁻].

Kb = ([OH-] [OH⁻]) / [NH₃]

Kb = [OH⁻]² / [NH₃]

[OH⁻]² = Kb *[NH₃]

[OH⁻] = √(Kb *[NH₃])

Next, to find out the OH⁻ concentration we have to express the concentration as a form of the Kb equation :

[OH⁻] = √(1.76 * 10⁻⁵ * 0.188)

[OH⁻] = √3.31 * 10⁻⁶

[OH⁻] = √1.82 * 10⁻³

Hence,

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

pOH = - log1.82 * 10⁻³

pOH = 3 - log1.82

pOH = 2.74

So, the pOH of the NH₃ solution is 2.74.

Why does magnesium nitrate not react with Magnesium sulfate?
Svetllana [295]
Magnesium nitrate o not react with magnesium sulfate because it cannot displace the ions involved. The cations are the same so they just cancel the charges. If you look at it, even of a reaction occurs the product will still be the same substances.

A 3.00-l flask is filled with gaseous ammonia, nh3. the gas pressure measured at 15.0 ∘c is 2.15 atm . assuming ideal gas behavi
Leokris [45]
We can find the mass of ammonia using the ideal gas law equation,
PV = nRT
where 
P - pressure - 2.15 atm x 101 325 = 2.18 x 10⁵
V - volume - 3.00 x 10⁻³ m³
n - number of moles 
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature in kelvin - 15.0 °C + 273 = 288 K
substituting these values in the equation 
2.18 x 10⁵ Pa x 3.00 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 288 K
n = 0.273 mol 
number of moles of NH₃ is 0.273 mol 
molar mass of NH₃ - 17.0 g/mol 
mass pf ammonia present - 0.273 mol x 17.0 g/mol = 4.64 g
mass of NH₃ present is 4.64 g

What is the pOH of a base with a OH- concentration of 0.0500 x 10-11 M? PLEASEEEEEE ASAP
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

poH= -log(oh^-)

= - log (0.500* 10^-11)

= =- log 0.5 + log (10^-11)

= -( -0.30 +(-11))

=+ 11.3
