Answer:

The pH is 7.54

Explanation:

The Henderson - Hasselbalch equation states that for a buffer solution which consists of a weak acid and its conjugate base, the buffer pH is given by:

pH =pk_{a} +log(\frac{[conjugate base]}{[weakacid]})

pkₐ is for the acid

In this case, the buffer hypochlorous acid  HClO is a weak acid, and its conjugate base is the hypochlorite anion ClO⁻  is delivered to the solution via sodium hypochlorite NaClO .

NaCIO = 0.200 M

HCIO = 0.200 M

pkₐ = -log₁₀ kₐ = -log₁₀ (2.9 × 10⁻⁸) = 7.54

∴pH = =7.54 +log\frac{0.2}{0.2} = 7.54

What is the acceleration object velocity of +25m/s to rest in 5.0 s
Irina-Kira [14]

The average acceleration is -5.0 m·s⁻².

The formula for acceleration (<em>a</em>) is

a = \frac{v_{f}- v_{i}}{t}

v_{f} = 25 m·s⁻¹;  v_{i} = 0; t = 5.0 s

∴ a = \frac{0-25}{5.0} = -5.0 m·s⁻²

The negative sign tells you that the object is <em>slowing down</em>, i.e., it is <em>decelerating</em>.

What term describes a carbon atom that has four different groups bonded to it?
oee [108]
A carbon which is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms with different environment is called as Chiral Carbon or Asymmetric Carbon.

Non-<span>superimposable:
</span>                                     The mirror image (molecule) of chiral carbon cotaining compounds are Non.Superimposable on each other. They are called enantiomers of each other.

Polarized Light and Chiral Carbon:
                                                       When a polarized light is allowed to fall on either enantiomer of chiral compound, it is rotated other clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Examples:
                Below are three axamples of compounds containing chiral carbon.

Which segement of the heating curve shown above represents an increase in the potential energy, but no change in the kinetic ene
Ede4ka [16]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as the energy obtained by the molecules of an object due to their motion.

Also, it is known that kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

Mathematically,       K.E = \frac{3}{2}kT

where,             T = temperature

Whereas potential energy is defined as the energy obtained by an object due to its position.

Mathematically,      P.E = mgh

where,             m = mass

                        g = acceleration due to gravity

                        h = height

Therefore, in the given curve when temperature remains constant then kinetic energy of molecules will also remain.

Hence, we can conclude that the segment QR represents an increase in the potential energy, but no change in the kinetic energy.
