    A solution of \[0.1\text{ }M\text{ }NaZ\] has \[pH=8.90.\]The \[{{K}_{a}}\] of HZ is

    A) \[6.3\times {{10}^{-11}}\]       

    B) \[6.3\times {{10}^{-10}}\]

    C) \[1.6\times {{10}^{-5}}\]         

    D) \[1.6\times {{10}^{-6}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] NaZ is salt of \[{{W}_{A}}/{{S}_{B}}\] \[\therefore pH=\frac{1}{2}(p{{K}_{W}}+p{{K}_{a}}+logC)\] \[8.9\times 2=14+p{{K}_{a}}+log0.1\] \[17.8=14+p{{K}_{a}}-1\] \[p{{K}_{a}}=4.8,\] \[{{K}_{a}}\]= Antilog \[\left( -4.8 \right)\] \[=1.585\times {{10}^{-5}}\approx 1.6\times {{10}^{-5}}\]
