    BOH is a weak base. Molar concentration of, BOH that provides a\[[O{{H}^{-}}]\] of\[1.5\times {{10}^{-3}}M\]is \[[Kb(BOH)=1.5\times {{10}^{-5}}]\]

    A)  \[1.5\times {{10}^{-5}}M\]

    B)  0.015 M

    C)  0.0015 M       

    D)  0.15 M

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     \[BOH{{B}^{+}}+O{{H}^{-}}\] \[{{K}_{b}}=\frac{[{{B}^{+}}][O{{H}^{-}}]}{[BOH]}\] \[[{{B}^{+}}]=[O{{H}^{-}}]\] \[{{K}_{b}}=\frac{{{[O{{H}^{-}}]}^{2}}}{[BOH]}\] \[\therefore \] \[[BOH]=\frac{{{[O{{H}^{-}}]}^{2}}}{{{K}_{b}}}=\frac{{{(1.5\times {{10}^{-3}})}^{2}}}{1.5\times {{10}^{-5}}}\] \[=1.5\times {{10}^{-1}}M\] \[=0.15M\]
