Solution

The correct option is D 0.523
Since aniline and acetic acid are both weak electrolytes.
So,
Kh=KwKa×KbKh=10141.8×105×4.6×1010=1.2

if we see, KhC=1.20.1=12
Since, KhC<100,
So we cannot take the approximation 1h1 and we have to solve quadratic,
Kh=h2(1h)2Kh=h1h1.2=h1h1.096=h1hh=1.0962.096=0.523
