The `pK_(a)` of a weak acid, `HA`, is `4.80`. The `pK_(b)` of a weak base, `BOH`, is `4.78`. The `pH` of an aqueous solution of the corresponding salt, `BA`, will be:A. `8.58`B. `4.79`C. `7.01`D. `9.22` |

Answer» Correct Answer - C It is a salt of weak acid and weak base. `pH= 7+(1)/(2)(pK_(a)-pK_(b))` `= 7+(1)/(2)(4.8-4.78)` `= 7.01` |
