Let B be the weak base, and y M be the initial concentration of B.
Equation for the reaction :
B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ HB(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
pOH = pKw - pH = 14.00 - 10.00 = 4.00
[OH⁻] at equilibrium = 10^(-pH) M = 10⁻⁴ M
Therefore, 10⁻⁴ M of the base is consumed to form 10⁻⁴ M of HB and 10⁻⁴ M of OH⁻ ions.
____________ B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ HB(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ___ Kc = 7.20 × 10⁻⁷
At eqm : __ (y + 10⁻⁴) M _____ 10⁻⁴ M __ 10⁻⁴ M
As Kc is very small, B dissociates to a very small extent.
Hence, we can assume that y ≫ 10⁻⁴ M, and thus (y - 10⁻⁴) M ≈ y M
At equilibrium :
Kc = [HB] [OH⁻] / [B]
7.20 × 10⁻⁷ = (10⁻⁴)² / y
y = (10⁻⁴)² / (7.20 × 10⁻⁷)
y = 0.014 (to 2 sig. fig.)
(The value of y agree with the assumption that y ≫ 10⁻⁴ M)
The concentration of the base = 0.014 M
