The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the hydrolysis constant (K_h), the degree of hydrolysis (h), and the concentration of hydroxide ions ([OH⁻]) for a 0.1 M solution of NH₄Cl. We are given that K_b for NH₄⁺ is 2.0 × 10⁻⁵. ### Step 1: Calculate the Hydrolysis Constant (K_h) The hydrolysis constant (K_h) can be calculated using the formula: \[ K_h = \frac{K_w}{K_b} \] Where: - \( K_w \) is the ion product of water, which is \( 1.0 \times 10^{-14} \) at 25°C. - \( K_b \) is the base dissociation constant for NH₄⁺, which is given as \( 2.0 \times 10^{-5} \). Substituting the values: \[ K_h = \frac{1.0 \times 10^{-14}}{2.0 \times 10^{-5}} = 5.0 \times 10^{-10} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Degree of Hydrolysis (h) The degree of hydrolysis (h) can be calculated using the formula: \[ h = \sqrt{\frac{K_h}{C}} \] Where: - \( C \) is the concentration of the solution, which is given as 0.1 M. Substituting the values: \[ h = \sqrt{\frac{5.0 \times 10^{-10}}{0.1}} = \sqrt{5.0 \times 10^{-9}} = 7.07 \times 10^{-5} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Concentration of Hydroxide Ions ([OH⁻]) The concentration of hydroxide ions can be calculated using the formula: \[ [OH^-] = C \cdot h \] Substituting the values: \[ [OH^-] = 0.1 \times 7.07 \times 10^{-5} = 7.07 \times 10^{-6} \text{ M} \] ### Final Results 1. Hydrolysis constant (K_h) = \( 5.0 \times 10^{-10} \) 2. Degree of hydrolysis (h) = \( 7.07 \times 10^{-5} \) 3. Concentration of hydroxide ions ([OH⁻]) = \( 7.07 \times 10^{-6} \text{ M} \)
