Solution

C= 0.05 MpKa =4.74-logKa = 4.74Ka = A.lg(-4.74) = 1.82 × 10-5Ka = α2Cα = KaC = 1.82 × 10-50.05 = 1.908 × 10-2When 0.01 MHCl is taken, x be the amount of acetic acid dissociated afterthe addition of HCl. CH3COOH H+ + CH3COO-Initial concentration 0.05 0 0 After dissociation 0.05 -x 0.01 +x xAs the dissociation is very small 0.05 -x 0.05 and 0.01 +x 0.01Ka = [CH3COO-] [ H+][CH3COOH] = 0.01 × x0.051.82 × 10-5 =0.01 × x0.05x= 1.82 × 10-3 × 0.05Degree of dissociation = Amount of acid dissociatedAmount of acid taken = 1.82 × 10-3 × 0.050.05 = 1.82 ×10-3
