Answer:

pH = 11.216.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the ionization of ammonia in aqueous solution:

NH_3+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NH_4^++OH^-

We can set up its equilibrium expression in terms of x as the reaction extent equal to the concentration of each product at equilibrium:

Kb=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]} \\\\1.80x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.150-x}

However, since Kb<<<1 we can neglect the x on bottom and easily compute it via:

1.80x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.150}\\\\x=\sqrt{1.80x10^{-5}*0.150}=1.643x10^{-3}M

Which is also:

[OH^-]=1.643x10^{-3}M

Thereafter we can compute the pOH first:

pOH=-log(1.643x10^{-3}M)\\\\pOH=2.784

Finally, the pH turns out:

pH=14-2.784\\\\pH=11.216

Which of the following electromagnetic waves are listed in the correct order from longest wavelength to shortest wavelength
Ghella [55]
Good afternoon,

Infrared light wavelengths = 1,000 nm - 750 nm

Visible light wavelengths = 750 nm - 400 nm

UV (Ultraviolet) light wavelengths = 400 nm - 10nm

So, the correct order is Infrared - Visible - Ultraviolet

I hope this has satisfied you, and if you need anymore help, feel free to ask.

Have a good afternoon!

Hydrogen ions cannot exist alone but they exist after combining with water molecules true or false​
juin [17]
True because hydrogen ions combines with h2o to make hydronium ion, so in a sense h2o is acting like a base.
