A weak acid of dissociation constant 10-5 is being titrated with aqueous NaOH solution. The pH at the point of one-third neutralisation of the acid will be
5 + log 2 - log 3
5 - log 2
5 - log 3
5 - log 6
Addition of sodium acetate to 0.1 M acetic acid will cause
increase in pH
decrease in pH
no change in pH
change in pH that cannot be predicted
A catalyst is a substance which
increases the equilibrium constant of the reaction
increases equilibrium concentration of products
does not alter the reaction mechanism
changes the activation energy of the reaction
Which of the following acids has the smallest dissociation constant?
CH3CHFCOOH
FCH2CH2COOH
BrCH2CH2COOH
CH3CHBrCOOH
C.
BrCH2CH2COOH
Group or atom attached with -COOH group shows negative inductive effect, makes the acid stronger or acid has the larger dissociation constant.
-Br shows poor negative inductive effect and also it is far away from -COOH, which makes BrCH2CH2COOH weakest acid and hence, it has smallest dissociation constant.
A liquid is in equilibrium with its vapour at it's boiling point. On the average, the molecules in two phases have equal

potential energy
kinetic energy
total energy
For the chemical reaction 3X(g)+ Y(g) X3Y (g), the amount of X3Y at equilibrium is affected by
