The pH of 0.005M codeine (C18H21NO3) solution is 9.95. Calculate its ionization constant and pKb.
c = 0.005
pH = 9.95
pOH = 4.05
pH = -log (4.05)
4.05 = - log [OH-]
[OH-] = 8.91x 10-5
cα = 8.91x 10-5
α = 8.91x 10-5 / 5 x 10-3 = 1.782 x 10-2
Thus , Kb = cα2
= 0.005 x (1.782)2 x 10-4
= 0.005 x 3.1755 x 10-4
= 0.0158 x 10-4
Kb = 1.58 x 10-6
PKb = -logKb
= -log (1.58 x 10-6)
= 5.80
