\mathrm{Given: K_b = 1.77 \times 10^{-5}}

Option: 1

5.64 \times 10^{-10}


Option: 2

5.64 \times 10^{-19}


Option: 3

1.77 \times 10^{-10}


Option: 4

We know that, for a conjugate acid -base pair

\mathrm{k_a \times k_b = k_w}

Thus, 

\mathrm{k_a= \frac{k_w}{ k_b}= \frac{10^{-14}}{1.77 \times 10^{-5}}=5.64 \times 10^{-10}}

Therefore,option(1) is correct
