Question

The sodium salt of a certain weak monobasic organic acid is hydrolysed to an extent of 3% in its 0.1M solution at 25oC. Given that the ionic product of water is 10-14 at this temperature, what is the dissociation constant of the acid?

Options

A.≈  1 × 10-10
B.≈ 1 × 10-9
C.3.33 × 10-9
D.3.33 × 10-10

Solution

h = .03             C = 0.1 M
Kh = Ch2 = 9 × 10-5
Kh = =  9 × 10-5  ⇒  Ka = = 1.11 × 10-10 ≈ 1 × 10-10
