At 25∘C, the ionization constants of CH3COOH and NH3 are almost equal. The pH of a solution of 0.01 M CH3COOH is 4.0 at 25∘C. The pOH of 0.01 M NH4OH at the same temperature will be :
10.0
Since Ka=Kb′[H3O+] in 0.01MCH3COOH=[OH−] in 0.01 MNH4OH.
Hence, pOH of NH4OH(aq)=pH of CH3COOH(aq)
=4;pH of NH4OH=14−4=10
