Weak base

In chemistry, a weak base is a chemical base that does not ionize fully in an aqueous solution. As Brønsted–Lowry bases are proton acceptors, a weak base may also be defined as a chemical base in which protonation is incomplete. This results in a relatively low pH compared to strong bases. Bases range from a pH of greater than 7 (7 is neutral, like pure water) to 14 (though some bases are greater than 14). pH has the formula:
:\mbox = -\log_ \left(\mbox^+ \right )
Since bases are proton acceptors, the base receives a hydrogen ion from water, H2O, and the remaining H+ concentration in the solution determines pH. Weak bases will have a higher H+ concentration because they are less completely protonated than stronger bases and, therefore, more hydrogen ions remain in the solution. If you plug in a higher H+ concentration into the formula, a low pH results. However, pH of bases is usually calculated using the OH concentration to find the pOH first. This is done because the H+ concentration is not a part of the reaction, while the OH concentration is.
:\mbox = -\log_ \left(\mbox^- \right )
By multiplying a conjugate acid (such as NH4+) and a conjugate base (such as NH3) the following is given:
: K_a \times K_b = \times = () ()
Since = () () then, ''K_a \times K_b = K_w''
By taking logarithms of both sides of the equation, the following is reached:
:logK_a + logK_b = logK_w
Finally, multiplying throughout the equation by -1, the equation turns into:
:pK_a + pK_b = pK_w = 14.00
After acquiring pOH from the previous pOH formula, pH can be calculated using the formula pH = pKw - pOH where pKw = 14.00.
Weak bases exist in chemical equilibrium much in the same way as weak acids do, with a base dissociation constant (Kb) indicating the strength of the base. For example, when ammonia is put in water, the following equilibrium is set up:
:\mathrm{K_b={() ()\over()}}
Bases that have a large Kb will ionize more completely and are thus stronger bases. As stated above, pH of the solution depends on the H+ concentration, which is related to the OH concentration by the self-ionization constant (Kw = 1.0x10−14). A strong base has a lower H+ concentration because they are fully protonated and less hydrogen ions remain in the solution. A lower H+ concentration also means a higher OH concentration and therefore, a larger Kb.

NaOH (s) (sodium hydroxide) is a stronger base than (CH3CH2)2NH (l) (diethylamine) which is a stronger base than NH3 (g) (ammonia). As the bases get weaker, the smaller the Kb values become.
==Percentage protonated==
As seen above, the strength of a base depends primarily on pH. To help describe the strengths of weak bases, it is helpful to know the percentage protonated-the percentage of base molecules that have been protonated. A lower percentage will correspond with a lower pH because both numbers result from the amount of protonation. A weak base is less protonated, leading to a lower pH and a lower percentage protonated.
The typical proton transfer equilibrium appears as such:
:B(aq) + H_2O(l) \leftrightarrow HB^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)
B represents the base.
:Percentage\ protonated = \times 100\% =
In this formula, ()initial is the initial molar concentration of the base, assuming that no protonation has occurred.
