The concentration of ammonia is 0.056 M

Explanation:

To calculate the hydroxide ion concentration, we first calculate pOH of the solution, which is:

pH + pOH = 14

We are given:

pH = 11.00

So, pOH=14-11.00=3.00

To calculate hydroxide ion concentration, we use the equation:

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

We know that:

pOH = 3.00

$3.00=-\log [OH^-]$

$[OH^-]=10^{-3}M$

The chemical equation for the hydrolysis of ammonia follows:

$NH_3+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NH_4^++OH^-$

Let the concentration of ammonia be 'x'

The expression of K_b for above equation follows:

$K_b=\frac{[NH_4^+][OH^-]}{[NH_3]}$

We are given:

$K_b=1.8\times 10^{-5}$

$[NH_4^+]=[OH^-]=10^{-3}M$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{10^{-3}\times 10^{-3}}{x}\\\\x=\frac{10^{-6}}{1.8\times 10^{-5}}=0.056M$

Hence, the concentration of ammonia is 0.056 M
