Equilibrium Question 307

Question: What is the pH of 0.01 M glycine solution’ For glycine, $ Ka_1=4.5\times {10^{-3}} $ and $ Ka_2=1.7\times {10^{-10}} $ at 298 K [AIIMS 2004]

Options:

A) 3.0

B) 10.0

C) 6.1

D) 7.2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ K=Ka_1\times Ka_2 $

$ =4.5\times {10^{-3}}\times 1.7\times 10^{10} $

$ {H^{+}}=\sqrt{Kc} $

$ =\sqrt{4.5\times {10^{-3}}\times 1.7\times {10^{-10}}\times .01} $

$ =.87\times {10^{-7}} $

$ pH=-\log \ 0.87\times {10^{-7}} $

$ =7-0.93=6.07 $ .
