Detailed Solution

 pH + pOH = 14

9 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 – 9 = 5

pOH = -log[OH[-}]

5 = -log[OH[-}]

[OH-]=10-5

Consider a weak mono acidic base,

BOHB++OH-

Kb=[B+][OH-]BOH

Since, 0.1 >> 10-5, [BOH]=0.1 mol L^ {−1}

& Also [B+]=[OH-]

Therefore, Kb=[OH-]2BOH

(10-5)20.1

1×10-9

Hence, the correct option is option (B) 109.
