The pH of the solution is 3.39

Explanation:

The relationship between Van't Hoff factor and degree of dissociation is given as:

\alpha=\frac{i-1}{n-1}

where,

n = number of ions = 2 (for acetic acid)

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1.04

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\alpha=\frac{1.04-1}{2-1}\\\\\alpha=0.04

The chemical equation for the dissociation of acetic acid follows:

                    CH_3COOH\rightarrow CH_3COO^-+H^+

Initial:              c              

At eqllm:      c-c\alpha                     c\alpha            

We are given:

Concentration of acetic acid (c) = 0.01 M

To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:

pH=-\log [H^+]

where,

[H^+] = concentration of hydrogen ions = c\alpha=0.01\times 0.04=4\times 10^{-4}M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pH=-\log(4\times 10^{-4)\\\\pH=3.39
