According to the reaction equation:

and by using ICE table:

              CN-  + H2O ↔ HCN  + OH- 

initial  0.08                        0          0

change -X                        +X          +X

Equ    (0.08-X)                    X            X

so from the equilibrium equation, we can get Ka expression

when Ka = [HCN] [OH-]/[CN-]

when Ka = Kw/Kb

               = (1 x 10^-14) / (4.9 x 10^-10)

               = 2 x 10^-5

So, by substitution:

2 x 10^-5 = X^2 / (0.08 - X)

X= 0.0013

∴ [OH] = X = 0.0013 

∴ POH = -㏒[OH]

            = -㏒0.0013

            = 2.886 

∴ PH = 14 - POH

         = 14 - 2.886 = 11.11
