Solution

$K_{a} (C_{6} H_{5} C O O H) = 1 \times 10^{- 4}$
pH of 0.01 M $C_{6} H_{5} C O O N a$
$C_{6} H_{5} C O O^{-} 0.01 (1 - h) + H_{2} O 0.01 h ⇌ C_{6} H_{5} C O O H 0.01 h + O H^{-}$
$K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a}} = \frac{0.01 h^{2}}{1 - h}$
$\frac{10^{- 14}}{10^{- 4}} = \frac{10^{- 2} h^{2}}{1 - h}, (1 - h \approx 1)$
$[O H^{-}] = 0.01 h = 0.01 \times 10^{- 4} = 10^{- 6}$
$[H^{+}] = 10^{- 8}$
$p H = 8$
