The dissociation constant of a substituted benzoic acid is 1 . 0 × 10 - 4 at 25 o C . The pH of 0.01 M solution of its sodium salt is
Options
- A7
- B6
- C8
- D4
Correct answer
C. 8
Step-by-step solution
For a salt of a weak acid and strong base p H = 7 + 1 2 p K a + 1 2 l o g C = 7 + 1 2 − log   1 × 10 − 4 + 1 2 log 0.01 = 8 .
