PH and acid disassociation constant?

if the 0.50M acetic acid solution is diluted to 0.010M, how would its pH change? Does its Ka value change?



For 0.50M acetic acid i got a pH of 2.44 during experiment.PH and acid disassociation constant?
acetic acid



CH3COOH %26lt;-----%26gt; CH3COO- + H+



So, CH3COOH is not completely dissociated to produce hydrogen ions



So, although you change to concentration of acetic acid, your pH of acetic acid will not change appreciably, it can be a little changed.



Ka value never changes (because it is dissociation constant of acid but there is some evidence that Ka value change with temperature)
