What will be the value of [OH^(-)]^(2) in the 0.1 M solution of ammonium hydroxide having K_(b)=1.8xx10^(-5)?

Answer»

`1.8xx10^(-7)`
`1.8xx10^(-6)`
`1.8xx10^(-4)`
`1.8xx10^(-3)`

Solution :`{:(,NH_(4)OH,hArr,NH_(4)^(+),+,OH^(-),,),("Initial conc. :",0.1 M ,,0,,0,,),("At EQM. :",0.1 (1-ALPHA),,0.1 alpha,,0.1 alpha,,),(,,,,,,,):}`
`K_(b) =([NH_(4)^(+)][OH^(-)])/([NH_(4)OH])=([OH^(-)]^(2))/([NH_(4)OH])` `[:' [NH_(4)^(+)]=[OH^(-)]]`
`:. [OH^(-)]^(2) = K_(b) xx [ NH_(4)OH]`
`=1.8xx10^(-5)xx0.1=1.8xx10^(-6)`
