Topic Question Set

Q 1 :
$K_{a}$ for ${CH}_{3} COOH$ is $1.8 \times 10^{- 5}$ and $K_{b}$ for ${NH}_{4} OH$ is $1.8 \times 10^{- 5} .$ The pH of ammonium acetate solution will be _______ . [2024]

0%

(7)

$As K_{a} of {CH}_{3} COOH = K_{b} of {NH}_{4} OH$

$So, {pK}_{a} of {CH}_{3} COOH = {pK}_{b} of {NH}_{4} OH$

$And p K_{a} - p K_{b} = 0$

For salt of weak acid and weak base:

$pH = \frac{1}{2} (p K_{w} + p K_{a} - p K_{b})$

$pH = \frac{1}{2} (14 + 0) = 7$
