Answer:

The value of K_b of the an ethylamine is 4.121\times 10^{-4}.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution = 12.067

The pOH of the solution = 14 - pH =14-12.607 =1.933

pOH=-\log[OH^-]

1.933=-\log[OH^-]

[OH^-]=0.0117 M

C_2H_5NH_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_2H_5NH_3^{+}+OH^-

Initially

0.342 M                              0     0

At equilibrium

(0.342-x)                             x      x

The value of x = [OH^-]=0.0117 M

The expression of K_bis given as:

K_b=\frac{[C_2H_5NH_3^{+}][OH^-]}{[C_2H_5NH_2]}

K_b=\frac{x^2}{(0.342-x)}

K_b=\frac{(0.0117 )^2}{(0.342-0.0117)}=4.121\times 10^{-4}

The value of K_b of the an ethylamine is 4.121\times 10^{-4}.
