    8.03.

    Explanation:

    Since, the no. of millimoles of NH₃ is more than that of HNO₃, the medium will be basic.

    C of base (NH₃) = [ (MV) NH₃ - (MV) HNO₃] / Vtotal.

    C of base (NH₃) = [ (0.20 M) (75.0 mL) - (0.50 M) (19.0 mL) ] / (94.0 mL) = 0.0585 M.

    ∵ [OH⁻] = √ (Kb. C)

    ∴ [OH⁻] = √ (1.8 x 10⁻⁵) (0.0585 M) = 1.053 x 10⁻⁶.

    ∵ pOH = - log[OH⁻] = - log (1.053 x 10⁻⁶) = 5.97.

    ∴ pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 5.97 = 8.03.
