UNIT 8: Ionic Equilibrium - Online Test

Q1. The hydrogen ion concentration of a buffer solution consisting of a weak acid and its salts is given by
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

According to Henderson equation

pH = pKa + log ([salt]/[acid])

ie. - log [H+ ] = - log Ka +log ([salt] / [acid])

 -log[H+] = log ([salt]/ [acid]) × (1/Ka)

  log (1/[H+]) = log ([salt]/ [acid]) × (1/Ka)

[H+] = Ka {[acid] / [salt] }


Q2. Which of the following relation is correct for degree of hydrolysis of ammonium acetate?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

 h= √{ (Kh) / (Ka .Kb) }

Q3. Dissociation constant of NH4OH is 1.8 ×10-5 the hydrolysis constant of NH4Cl would be
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

 Kh = Kw/Kb = 1×10-14 / 1.8×10-5

 = 0.55×10-9

 = 5.5×10-10
