Assertion (A): Aqueous solution of ammonium acetate is neutral
Reason(R): Dissociation constants of `NH_(4),OH(K_(6))` and that of `CH_(3),COOH (K_(a))` are nearly equal.

A

Both (A ) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct explanation of (A )

B

Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is not the correct explanation of (A)

C

(A ) is true but (R ) is false

D

(A ) is false but (R ) is true

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
pKa of `CH_3COOH =pKb ` of ` NH_4OH`
`therefore pH " of " CH_3COONH_4 = 7`

The dissolution of ammonia gas in water does not obey Henry's law. On dissolving. a major portion of ammonia molecules unite with H_(2),O to form NH_(4),OH molecules. A portion of the latter again dissociates into NH_(4)^(+) , and OH^(-) ions. In solution thercfore, we have NH_(3) , molecules, NH_(4),OH molecules and NH_(4)^(+) , ions and the following equilibrium exist: NH_(3(g)) (pressure P and concentration c) rarr NH_(3(l)) + H_(2),Orarr NH_(4),OH rarr NH_(4)^(+) rarr,+OH^(-) Let c_(1) ,mol/L of NH_(3) , pass in liquid state which on dissolution in water forms c_(2) mol/ L of NH_(4),OH.
