Chapter 15.4, Problem 8PE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The equation representing the ionization of Ethylamine is given. The percent ionization of ${\text{C}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}{\text{NH}}_{\text{2}}$ and value of $K_{\text{b}}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The $\text{pH}$ of an acid determines the concentration of Hydrogen or Hydronium ions that are present in the solution.

To determine: The percent ionization of ${\text{C}}_{\text{2}}{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}{\text{NH}}_{\text{2}}$ and value of $K_{\text{b}}$.
