Solution

The correct option is B 4.2
$p H = p K_{a} + l o g \frac{[s a l t]}{[a c i d]}$

When we add 50 ml of NaOH, $[s a l t] = [a c i d] = 50 \times 0.02$

So, $p H = p K_{a} = 4.2$

Option A is correct.

100 mL of 0.02 M benzoic acid (pKa=4.2) is titrated using 0.02 M NaOH. pH after 50 mL of NaOH have been added is:

The correct option is B 4.2pH=pKa+log[salt][acid]When we add 50 ml of NaOH, [salt]=[acid]=50×0.02So, pH=pKa=4.2Option A is correct.
