Answer:
pH = 5.54
Explanation:
The pH of a buffer solution is given by the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach (H-H) equation</em>:
- pH = pKa + log
![\frac{[CH_3COO^-]}{[CH_3COOH]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%5BCH_3COO%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BCH_3COOH%5D%7D)
For acetic acid, pKa = 4.75.
We <u>calculate the original number of moles for acetic acid and acetate</u>, using the <em>given concentrations and volume</em>:
- CH₃COO⁻ ⇒ 0.377 M * 0.250 L = 0.0942 mol CH₃COO⁻
- CH₃COOH ⇒ 0.345 M * 0.250 L = 0.0862 mol CH₃COOH
The number of CH₃COO⁻ moles will increase with the added moles of KOH while the number of CH₃COOH moles will decrease by the same amount.
Now we use the H-H equation to <u>calculate the new pH</u>, by using the <em>new concentrations</em>:
- pH = 4.75 + log
= 5.54
Yeah of-course!! It's valency by group most of the chemical property like electronegativity, ionization energy etc. by the combination of groups and periods...
<em>All living organisms share several key characteristics or functions: order, sensitivity or response to the environment, reproduction, adaptation, growth and development, homeostasis, energy processing, and evolution. When viewed together, these characteristics serve to define life.</em>

Explanation:
Each element in the periodic table has different but fixed number of the protons in nucleus of it's atom, which is known as the atomic number.
Transmutation of one chemical element into the another involves the changing of the atomic number. Such nuclear reaction requires millions of the times more energy as compared to normal chemical reactions. Thus, the dream of the alchemist of transmuting the lead into the gold was never achievable chemically .
Conversion of lead to gold in today's world:
This conversion is indeed possible. The requirements are a particle accelerator, tremendous supply of the energy. Nuclear scientists at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory located in California, more than 30 years ago, succeeded in producing very minute amounts of the gold from the bismuth. Bismuth is a metallic element which is adjacent to the lead on periodic table. Same process would work for the lead but isolating gold at end of reaction would prove much more difficult because lead is available in many isotopes. The homogeneous nature of the element means that it is easier to separate the gold from the bismuth as compared to separate the gold from the lead which has four isotopic identities which all are stable.
