Chapter 8, Problem 8.90P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The $p{K}_{\text{a}}$ value an acid with $K_{\text{a}}$ value 1000 should be calculate and explained.

Concept Introduction:

The $p{K}_{\text{a}}$ of an acid is negative log of $K_{\text{a}}$, it is mathematically represented as follows:

$p{K}_{\text{a}}=-\log K_{\text{a}}$

Here, $K_{\text{a}}$ is acid dissociation constant of an acid.
