An acidic indicator ionises as I(n) H h...

An acidic indicator ionises as `I_(n) H hArr "In"^(-) + H^(+)` . The molecular and ions of the indicator show different colours. The indicator changed it colour if its acidic of basic form completely predominant.
Dissociation constant of an acidic indicator is `10^(-5)` . At what `p^(H)` 80% of the indicator exists in molecular form ?

A

`4.4`

B

` 6.6 `

C

` 5.5`

D

` 3.3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

` pH = p^(kln ) + log ""([In^(-) ])/( [HIn]) `
` pH =5+ log ""(20)/( 80 ) =5- log 4 = 4.4 `
