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 of . 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
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
HX | _ | H + | + | X -
Initially | 1 | 0 | 0
At equilibrium | 1 - _ | _ | _
Total moles = 1 � _ + _ + _ = 1 + _
_ i = 1 + _ 1
Given, _ = 20% = 0.2
_ i = 1 + _ = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2
_ T f = ik f
m = 1.2 _ 1.86 _ 0.5 = 1.12 K
