The pKb of dimethylamine and pKa of acetic acid are 3.27and 4.77 respectively at T(K). The correct option for the pH of dimethylammonium acetate solution is:
  1. 8.50
  2. 5.50
  3. 7.75
  4. 6.25

Solution

pkb of dimethylamine =3.27
pka of acetic acid =4.77

Dimethylammonium acetate is salt of weak acid and weak base for which pH is:

pH=7+12pka-12pKb

=7+12×4.77-12×3.27

=7.75
