Check my work and sig figs, and tell me if I got this right, thanks!
Calculate the percent ionization of ammonia in a 0.050 M NH3 solution.
okay I got the pKb off a website, it was 4.76, I convert this to Kb by 10^-4.76= 1.7x10^-5
okay, I use the ICE method and come up with x^2/0.050M-x=1.7x10^-5
I solve this for x and get x= 9.13x10^-4 this is my concentration of [OH-]
so % ionization= 9.13x10^-4/0.050= .0183 x 100 = 1.83%
Hows this look?
