Accumulation of lactic acid `(HC_(3)H_(5)O_(3))`, a monobasic acid in tissues leads to pain and a feeling of fatigue. In a 0.10 M aqueous solution, lactic acid is `3.7%` dissociates. The value of dissociation constant Ka, for this acid will beA. `1.4 xx 10^(-5)`B. `1.4 xx 10^(-4)`C. `3.7 xx 10^(-4)`D. `2.8 xx 10^(-4)` |

Answer» Correct Answer - B `alpha = sqrt((K_(a))/(C))` `alpha^(2) = (K_(a))/(C)` or `K_(a) = C alpha6(2)` `K_(a) = 0.10 xx ((3.7)/(100))^(2)` `K_(a) = 1.4 xx 10^(-4)` |
