    Answer is: pH of methylamine is 12,2.

    Chemical reaction: CH₃NH₂ (aq) + H₂O (l) ⇌ CH₃NH₃⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq).

    Kb (CH₃NH₂) = 4,4·10⁻⁴.

    c₀ (CH₃NH₂) = 0,57 M.

    c (CH₃NH₃⁺) = c (OH⁻) = x.

    c (NH₂OH) = 0,57 M - x.

    Kb = c (CH₃NH₃⁺) · c (OH⁻) / c (CH₃NH₂).

    0,00044 = x² / (0,57 M - x).

    Solve quadratic equation: x = c (OH⁻) = 0,0156 mol/L.

    pOH = - log (0,0156 mol/L.) = 1,80.

    pH = 14 - 1,80 = 12,2.
