It provides a reaction mechanism with a lower activation energy and hence, a faster reaction rate.
<span>The best choice is hypochlorous acid nitrous acid (HNO2) because it has the nearest value of pK to the desired pH.
pKa of </span>nitrous acid<span> is 3.34
If we know pKa and pH values, we can calculate the required ratio of conjugate base (NO2⁻) to acid (HNO2) from the following equation:
pH=pKa + log(conc. of base)/( conc. of acid)
</span><span>3.19=3.34 + log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
</span><span>3.19 - 3.34 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
-0.15 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2) = 10⁰¹⁵ = 1.41

Answer:
I don't know if this will help but. The Great Sphinx has suffered from erosion and vandalism. Hatshepsut's stepson was too young to rule at the time of her husband's death, so she just took the job.
