We will use the PH formula:
PH = Pka + ㏒ [salt/acid] 
 PH= Pka  +㏒ [lactate/lactic]
when Pka = -㏒Ka
                 = -㏒ 1.37x10^-4
                 = 3.86
and we have PH =4.12
So by substitution:
4.12 = 3.86 + ㏒[actate/lactic]
∴[actate/lactic] = 1.82
∴[lactic/actate] = 1 / 1.82
                         = 0.55

Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Explanation:

We need to find the product of given numbers.

First number = 29.5

Second number = 240

Product of two numbers = 29.5 × 240

= \dfrac{295}{10}\times 240

Zeroes from numerator and denominator get cancelled.

So,

=295\times 24\\\\=7080

Hence, the correct option is (a).

How do chemicals in a plant relate to bath bombs?
OLga [1]
