Answer:

ka = 2x10⁻⁹

Explanation:

Using the pH we can <u>calculate the molar concentration of H⁺</u>, [H⁺]

  • pH = -log[H⁺] = 4.65
  • 10^{-4.65} =  [H⁺] = 2.24 x 10⁻⁵ M

Then we use the expression of Ka for the equilibrium of a weak monoprotic acid:

HA ↔ H⁺ + A⁻

Where:

ka = \frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

ka =  \frac{(2.24*10^{-5})(2.24*10^{-5})}{0.25-2.24*10^{-5}} =  2x10⁻⁹
