Chapter 13, Problem 169CWP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The $\text{0}\text{.10}\text{M}$ solutions of the given compounds are to be arranged in increasing order of $\text{pH}$.

Concept introduction: Strong bases dissociate completely and rapidly when dissolved in an aqueous solution. They have a very large value of $K_{\text{b}}$ and a lower value of $\text{pH}$. The weak bases dissociate partially and slowly in an aqueous solution and have a very low value of $K_{\text{b}}$.and a higher value of $\text{pH}$.

To determine: The correct order of the $\text{0}\text{.10}\text{M}$ solutions of the given compounds in increasing order of $\text{pH}$.
