  2. pH = 2.7?
    Since HNO3 is a strong acid it dissociates completely and no equilibrium is formed. So 0.002M HNO3 = 0.002M H3O?

    What is the pOH of 0.50 M aqueous solution of ammonia, NH3? Ka = 5.56E-10

    1. The Ka of NH₄+ is 5.56E-10. Which is fine to give, we can work with that to determine the Kb of NH₃.

    2. pOH = 2.52

      Thanks for your responses!
