Answer:
pH = 8.34
Explanation:
The equilbriums of the amphoteric HCO₃⁻ (Ion of NaHCO₃) are:
H₂CO₃ ⇄ <em>HCO₃⁻</em> + H⁺ Ka1 <em>-Here, HCO₃⁻ is acting as a base-</em>
<em>HCO₃⁻</em>⇄ CO₃²⁻ + H⁺ Ka2 <em>-Here, is acting as an acid-</em>
Where Ka1 = 4.3x10⁻⁷ and Ka2 = 4.8x10⁻¹¹. As pKa = -log Ka:
pKa1 = 6.37; pKa2 = 10.32
As the pH of amphoteric salts is:
pH = (pKa1 + pKa2) / 2
<h2>pH = 8.34</h2>

Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
