(A) For a weak acid, $K_a = C\alpha^2$ and $\alpha = \frac{\Lambda_m}{\Lambda_m^0}$.$K_a = C \left(\frac{\Lambda_m}{\Lambda_m^0}\right)^2$$pK_a = -\log K_a = -\log C - 2\log \Lambda_m + 2\log \Lambda_m^0$$pK_a(HQ) - pK_a(HZ) = \log \left(\frac{C_{HZ}}{C_{HQ}}\right) + 2\log \left(\frac{\Lambda_{m(HZ)}}{\Lambda_{m(HQ)}}\right)$Given $\frac{\Lambda_{m(HQ)}}{\Lambda_{m(HZ)}} = \frac{1}{30}$, so $\frac{\Lambda_{m(HZ)}}{\Lambda_{m(HQ)}} = 30$.Since $\lambda_{Q^{-}}^0 = \lambda_{Z^{-}}^0$ and $\lambda_{H^+}^0$ is the same for both, $\Lambda_{m(HQ)}^0 = \Lambda_{m(HZ)}^0$.$\Delta pK_a = \log \left(\frac{0.02}{0.18}\right) + 2\log(30)$$\Delta pK_a = \log \left(\frac{1}{9}\right) + 2\log(30) = -2\log 3 + 2(\log 3 + \log 10) = -2\log 3 + 2\log 3 + 2 = 2$.
