Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{pH}\) of an aqueous solution of \(10^{-8}(\mathrm{M}) \mathrm{HCl}\) is 8 .

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

* \(\mathrm{pH}\) of a solution of strong acid and weak base \(\left(\right.\) say \(\left.\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{Cl}\right)\) is less than \(7 .\) * For hydrolysis of salt of weak acid and weak base. When \(\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}>\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}}, \quad \mathrm{pH} < 7\)…
