उत्तर

Given: [Base] = 0.3 mol dm–3,
[Salt] = 0.4 mol dm–3,
Kb = 1.8 × 10–5 for the weak base

To find: pOH of the buffer solution

Formula: pOH = pKb + log10 `(["salt"])/(["base"])`

Calculation: pOH of basic buffer is given by Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pOH = pKb + log10 `(["salt"])/(["base"])`

pKb = – log10Kb

= – log10 (1.8 × 10–5) = 5 – log101.8

= 5 – 0.2553 = 4.7447

Substitution in the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation gives

pOH = 4.7447 + log10 `0.4/0.3` = 4.7447 + log10 1.333

= 4.7447 + 0.1248 = 4.8695

The pOH of the given buffer solution is 4.8695.
