Kb for ammonia (NH3) is 1.76 x 10^-5. What is Ka for ammonium, its conjugate acid (NH4+)? Answer: 5.68 x 10^-10. Using the answer above, what is the pH of a 0.140 M solution of NH4+?
Obtain the Kb value for C3H5O2-. Ka for HC3H5O2 is 1.3 x 10^-5. Kb = b. Obtain the Ka value for NH4+. Kb for NH3 is 1.8 x 10^-5. Ka =
