The dissociation constants of monobasic acids A, B, C and D are  6 × 10 –4, 5 ×  10 –5, 3.6 ×  10 –6 and 7 × 10 –10 respectively. The pH values of their 0.1 molar aqueous solutions are in the order  :

A.A < B < C < D✓ Correct
B.A > B > C > D
C.A = B = C = D
D.None of these
Explanation

From  the  dissociation  constants,  it  is  clear  that  the strength of the acids is in the order A > B > C > D. All the acids have been taken at the same concentration however the  H  in all the solutions will not be the same as the extent of dissociation in each case will be different. The stronger the  Ka  value, the more it will dissociate therefore it will produce a larger  H . pH  of  its  solution  will  be  lower.  pH  will  follow order A < B < C < D.
