Equilibrium Question 531
Question: A solution of weak acids is diluted by adding an equal volume of water. Which of the following will not change [JIPMER 1997]
Options:
A) Strength of the acid
B) The value of $ [H_3{O^{+}}] $
C) $ pH $ of the solution
D) The degree of dissociation of acid
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
The value of $ H_3{O^{+}} $ ions will not change. $ CH_3COOH+H_2O $ ⇌ $ CH_3CO{O^{-}}+H_3{O^{+}} $ .
