The values of dissociation constant of some bases are given below. Which is the weakest base?
Options
- A1.8 × 10 - 5
- B4.8 × 10 - 10
- C7.2 × 10 - 11
- D7.07 × 10 - 7
Correct answer
C. 7.2 × 10 - 11
Step-by-step solution
For base B O H B O H ⇌ B + + O H - Dissociation constant K b = B + O H - [ B O H ] ∴ Higher the value of K b , more will be dissociation of base and stronger will be base and vice-versa. ∴ Weakest base among given choices is having K b = 7.2 × 10 - 11 .
