pKb = 3.36
pKb = -log Kb
3.36 = -logKb
-3.36 = log Kb
Punch in 3.36 and hit the change sign button OR punch in -3.36 directly, then hit the 10^x key. That will return 4.36515E-4 which rounds to 4.36E-4.
-3.36(log button or 10^x button)= syntax error ??
the key sequence will depend on the type of calculator that you have. If it is a VPAM or similar (like a Casio FX-83) then the sequence is something like
<shift><10^><-><3><.><3><6><=>
and the display will show
0.0004365
(depending on how the display is set up).
The exact key sequence will depend on the model of calculator you have.
