A buffer solution has equal volume of 0.20 M `NH_(4)OH` and 0.02 `MNH_(4)Cl :` The `pK_(b)` of the base is 5. The pH is

A

10

B

9

C

4

D

7

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`pOH =pK_(b) +log. (["salt"])/(["base"])`
` = 5 + log. (0.02)/(0.2) = 5 + log. 1/10= 5+(-1) = 4`
`pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 4 = 10` .
