Solution

The correct option is B $0.0818$
Initial $p O H = p K_{b} = 4.744$
Let $x$ mole of $N a O H$ has been added.
$[{N H}^{+}] = 0.1 + x, [{N H}_{3}] = 0.1 - x$
$p O H = 5.744$
$5.744 = 4.744 + log \frac{0.1 + x}{0.1 - x}$
$1 = log \frac{0.1 + x}{0.1 - x}$
$\frac{0.1 + x}{0.1 - x} = 10$ $\Rightarrow$ $x = \frac{0.9}{11} = 0.0818$ moles
