Solution

The larger the Kb the higher the [OH−]. This is because Kb (base dissociation constant) is a measure of the degree of dissociation, or the strength, of a base in solution. A larger Kb value indicates a stronger base, which means it will dissociate more completely in solution, producing more hydroxide ions ([OH−]).
