A weak acid `HX` has the dissociation constant `1 xx 10^(-5)M`. It forms a salt `NaX` on reaction with alkali. The percentage hydrolysis of `0.1M` solution of `NaX` isA. `0.0001%`B. `0.01%`C. `0.1 %`D. `0.15%`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
For a salt of weak acid and strong base, degree of hydrolysis ,
`h=sqrt((K_(w))/(K_(a)c))=sqrt((10^(-14))/(1 xx 10^(-5)xx 0.1))`
`=sqrt((10^(-14))/(10^(-6)))=10^(-4)`
`%h=10^(-4)xx100=10^(-2)=0.01%`
