Solution

The correct option is D 0.48
Initial concentration of [NH3]=0.11=0.1M
Similarly, [NH4Cl]=0.1M
According to Henderson equation-
POH=kb+log[salt][base]
POH=4.74+log0.10.1=4.74
PH=14POH144.74=9.26
When 0.05 mole of NaOH added
NaOH+NH4ClNaCl+NH4OH
t=0 0.05 0.1 0 0.1
t=tf 0 0.05 0.05 0.15
Now, POH2=144.26=9.74
Change in PHPHPH2=0.48
