Taking pKb=4.74 [a misprint in the given data]Using formula- p(OH) = pKb + log(salt/base) = 4.74 + log(0.0025/0.15) = 4.74 + log(0.01666) = 4.74 + [-1.78] = 4.74 - 1.78 = 2.96So, p(OH) = 2.96Since, pH + p(OH) = 14pH = 14 - p(OH) = 14 - 2.96 = 11.04So, the pH of the given solution comes out to be 11.04
