Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 9

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: \(\mathrm{pH}\) for monobasic acid \(=5.0\) The reaction for dissociation of monobasic acid is given by Since, \(\mathrm{pH}=-\log \left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]\) \[ \therefore \quad\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]=10^{-5} \mathrm{M} \] Thus, \(\quad x=10^{-5} \mathrm{M}\) Now,…
