Explanation / Answer
CH3SH (aq) <----> CH3S- (aq) + H+(aq) , Ka = 4 x 10^ -11 .........................eq(1)
(CH3)3COH (aq) <---> (CH3)3CO-(aq) + H+ (aq) , Ka = 3 x 10^ -17 ..............................eq(2)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now eq(1) - eq(2) gives us required eq
Ka = Ka in eq(1) / Ka in eq(2) = ( 4 x 10^ -11) / ( 3 x 10^ -17) = 1.33 x10^ 6
