Let the monoprotic acid be HA.
HA dissociates as:
HA -----> H+ + A-
0.46 0 0
0.46-x x x
Ka = [H+][A-]/[HA]
Ka = x*x/(c-x)
since ka is small, x will be small and it can be ignored as compared to c
So, above expression becomes
Ka = x*x/(c)
so, x = sqrt (Ka*c)
x = sqrt ((5.6*10^-6)*0.46) = 1.605*10^-3
use:
pH = -log [H+]
= -log (1.605*10^-3)
= 2.79
Answer: 2.79
