Q. Statement 1 : pH of $10^{-8} M\, HCl$ is not equal to 8
Statement 2 : $HCl$ does not dissociate property in very dilute solution

Equilibrium

Solution:

Correct (R): In such very dilute solutions both source of $H ^{\oplus}$ ions from $HCl$ and $H _2 O$ must be considered and due to common ion $\left( H ^{\oplus}\right)$ supression of ionization occurs
