QAIPMT-2007-Ch-2305: NEET 2007 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPMT-2007-Ch-2305 Solution: A weak acid HA has a \(K_a\) of \(1.00 10^{-5}\). If 0.100 mol…

A weak acid HA has a KaK_a of 1.00×10−51.00 \times 10^{-5}. If 0.100 mol of this acid is dissolved in one litre of water the percentage of acid dissociated at equilibrium is closest to 1.00% 99.9% 0.100% 99.0%

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 0.56 K
  • B 1.12 K
  • C −- _ 0.56 K
  • D −- _ 1.12 K
