The ionization constant of `overset(o+)(NH_(4))` ion in water is `5.6 xx 10^(-10)` at `25^(@)C`. The rate constant the reaction of `overset(o+)NH_(4)` and `overset(ɵ)(OH)` ion to form `NH_(3)` and `H_(2)O` at `25^(@)C` is `3.4 xx 10^(10)L mol^(-1) s^(-1)`. Calculate the rate constant for proton transfer from water to `NH_(3)`.

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the rate constant for the proton transfer from water to NH3. We will use the given ionization constant of the NH4+ ion and the rate constant for the reaction of NH4+ and OH- ions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values:** - Ionization constant of NH4+ (K_a) = \(5.6 \times 10^{-10}\) - Rate constant for the reaction of NH4+ and OH- (K_b) = \(3.4 \times 10^{10} \, \text{L mol}^{-1} \text{s}^{-1}\) - Ion product of water (K_w) = \(1.0 \times 10^{-14}\) at 25°C. ...
