Which of the following indicates that the pK of an acid is numerically equal to the pH of the solution when the molar concentration of the acid and its conjugate base are equal?

So pH = pKa when the acid and it’s conjugate base have equal concentration in the solution. This condition is satisfied when the degree of dissociation, x, of the acid is 0.5.
