Water being boiled, because for a chemical change to occur there needs to be at least one new substance formed.
Answer:
4.07
Explanation:
There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.
<em>A solution is prepared at 25 °C that is initially 0.057 M in nitrous acid (HNO₂), a weak acid with Ka = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴, and 0.30 M in sodium nitrite (NaNO₂). Calculate the pH of the solution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.</em>

Nitrous acid is a weak acid and nitrite (coming from sodium nitrite) is its conjugate base. Together, the form a buffer system. We can calculate its pH using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.
pH = pKa + log [base]/[acid]
pH = -log 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.30/0.057
pH = 4.07
Binary compounds consist of only two distinct elements, regardless of whether the compound is ionic or molecular. Water is a binary compound, as are calcium chloride, ammonia, and potassium iodide.
<span>An ionic binary compound consists of cations of one element and anions of another. KI is an ionic binary compound, composed of K cations and I anions. </span>
<span>A molecular binary compound does not consist of discrete ions, but of molecules. H2O is molecular, as is NH3.</span>
It posed a contradiction to Quantum Theory
