When $NaOH$ is added to a $CH_3COOH$ solution,$60\%$ of the acid is neutralized. If the $pK_a$ is $4.7$,the $pH$ of the resulting solution is:

  • A
    Greater than $4.7$ but less than $5.0$
  • B
    Greater than $4.7$ but less than $4.0$
  • C
    Greater than $5.0$
  • D
    No change

$A$ buffer solution is prepared by mixing $0.01 \ M$ $HCN$ and $0.02 \ M$ $NaCN$. If $K_{a}$ for $HCN$ is $6.6 \times 10^{-10}$,what is the concentration of $H^{+}$ ions in the solution?

Henderson's equation is $pH = pK_a + \log\frac{[\text{salt}]}{[\text{acid}]}$. If the acid is half-neutralized,the value of $pH$ will be: $[pK_a = 4.30]$
