JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 6.2. Equilibrium - II (icon Equilibrium)

The pH of a solution obtained by mixing \(5\) mL of \(0.1\) M \(NH_4OH\) solution with \(250\) mL of \(0.1\) M \(NH_4Cl\) solution is _____ \(\times 10^{-2}\). (Nearest integer)
Given: \(pK_b(NH_4OH) = 4.74\)
\(\log 2 = 0.30\)
\(\log 3 = 0.48\)
\(\log 5 = 0.70\)

  1. A 856
  2. B 756
  3. C 956
  4. D 656

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 756

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given mixture forms a basic buffer solution. Millimoles of base \(NH_4OH = 5 \times 0.1 = 0.5\) mmol Millimoles of salt \(NH_4Cl = 250 \times 0.1 = 25\) mmol Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for a basic buffer:…
