Calculate dissociation constant of \(0.001 \mathrm{M}\) weak monoacidic base undergoing \(2 \%\) dissociation.

  1. A \(4 \times 10^{-7}\)
  2. B \(2 \times 10^{-6}\)
  3. C \(2 \times 10^{-7}\)
  4. D \(1 \times 10^{-7}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(4 \times 10^{-7}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \alpha=\frac{\text { Percent dissociation }}{100}=\frac{2}{100}=0.02 \\ & K_a=\alpha^2 c=(0.02)^2 \times 0.001=4 \times 10^{-7}\end{aligned}\)
