Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Light is a form of energy. Both ultraviolet light and xrays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
As was said in the question, ultraviolet rays is absorbed by the rubber. We must know that prolonged exposure of this piece of rubber to incident ultraviolet light causes the vaporization of volatile materials in the rubber.
When volatile materials in the rubber vaporize, the rubber can become solid. Thus, ultraviolet light can cause rubber to become solid.
However, not all types of light can do this hence it does matter the type of light that falls on the rubber material.
We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH
The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])
We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87
So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.

A choking smell is a nasty, horrible smell. Hope this helps!
should be clear acid if im not mistaken
