\begin{array}{l}{\mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \quad[\mathrm{C}]=0.1 \mathrm{\: M}} \\\\ {\begin{aligned} \mathrm{pH} &=\frac{\mathrm{ p K_{1}}+ \mathrm{p K_{2}}}{2}=\frac{7-\log 4.5+11-\log 4.5}{2} \\\\ \mathrm{pH}&=\frac{18-2 \log 4.5}{2}=9-\log 4.5=9-0.66=8.34 \end{aligned}}\end{array}

Therefore, option(4) is correct
