MCQ
$50\, mL$ of $2\,N$ acetic acid mixed with $10\, mL$ of $1\,N$ sodium acetate solution will have an approximate $pH$ of $(K_a = 10^{-5})$
  • $4$
  • B
    $5$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $7$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$4$
a
Meq of acetic acid $=50 \times 2=100$

Meq of $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COONa}=10 \times 1=10$

$\mathrm{pH}=-\log \mathrm{Ka}+\log \frac{[\mathrm{Salt}]}{[\mathrm{Acid}]}$

or $\mathrm{pH}=-\log 10^{-5}+\log \frac{10}{100}=4$
