If level of ionization is 0.01 of deci-molar solution of weak acid i . e . Ha, at that point pKa of acid will be 5 .

As ,  

C a ^ 2 = Ka = 0.1 x ( 0.01 ) ^ 2 = 10 ^ -5

So, the pKa will be 5.

p_{K_a} of acid HA is 4.96

Explanation:

p_{K_a} of HA = ?

The dissociation reaction for HA is given by:

HA\rightarrow H^++A^-

c                   0             0

c-c\alpha       c\alpha          c\alpha

So dissociation constant K_a will be:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][OH^-]}{[HA]}

K_a=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}

Given :

c= concentration = 0.1 M

\alpha = degree of dissociation = 0.01

Putting in the values we get:

K_a=\frac{(0.1\times 0.01)^2}{(0.1-0.1\times 0.01}

K_a=1.1\times 10^{-5}

pK_a=-log[K_a]

pK_a=-log(1.1\times 10^{-5})=4.96
