Detailed Solution

Mixing 0.1mol of NaOH, 0.1mol of HC2H3O2, and one liter of water, yields a solution which is basic.

Acetic acid is used to transform sodium hydroxide solution into sodium acetate and water. A weak monoprotic acid is acetic acid. Its pKa value in aqueous solution is 4.76. Acetic acid (CH3COO) is the base of its conjugate. The pH of a 1.0 M solution, which is roughly the same as home vinegar, is 2.4, meaning that just 0.4% of the acetic acid molecules are dissociated.

Hence the option C is correct.
