Calculate the pH, pOH, and percentage protonation of solute in each of the following aqueous solutions: (a) 0.057M NH3(aq); etc.
How do we find the OH- concentration without the Kb given?

Re: 7th edition 6D.5
Given Ka, you can find the H+ concentration and the pH value. pOH = 14- pH and the concentration of OH- is 10^(-pOH).
Another way of finding the concentration of OH- is knowing that [OH-]*[H+]=10^-14. Once you have the concentration of H+, [OH-]=(10^-14)/[H+]

Re: 7th edition 6D.5
For this homework question, early in the chapter there was a table that provides all of the Kb values. That's what you would use to determine x in your ICE box, which you could then use to figure out pOH and then pH.
