The dissociation constant of a weak acid HA and weak base BOH are 2 xx 10^(-5) and 5 xx 10^(-6) respectively. The equilibrium constant for the neutralization reaction of the two is (ignnore hydrolysis of resulting salt )

The extent to which hydrolysis proceeds is expressed as degree of hydrolysis and is defined as fraction of ne mole of the salt that is hydrolysed when equilibrium has been attained . The nature of solution also depends upon the extent upto which the salt has been hydrolysed . Degree of hydrolysis of a salt ofdepends upon concentration of salt at a particular temperature and varies inversely . Consequently , nature of the solution whether acidic or alkaline can be determined . pH of the solution of salt of weak acid and strong base or weak base and strong acid depends upon its concentration . So by varying the concentration of salts their pH could be adjusted . For strong acid and weak base salt solution , the [H_(3)O^(+)] at equilibrium will be
