The pH of the solution : 12
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Reaction
HCOOH + NaOH ⇒ HCOONa + H₂O
mol HCOOH =

mol NaOH =

Mol NaOH>mol HCOOH ⇒ at the end of the reaction there will be a strong base remains from mol NaOH, so that the pH is determined from [OH⁻]
ICE method :
HCOOH + NaOH ⇒ HCOONa + H₂O
4 5
4 4 4 4
0 1 1 1
Concentration of [OH⁻] from NaOH :

pOH=-log[OH⁻]
pOH=-log 10⁻²=2
pH+pOH=14
pH=14-2=12
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Exothermic means that heat is released from the reaction
I believe the answer is C.
The chain reaction is easy to stop. Just add a neuron absorbing material. The Control Rods in rectors can do that You just SCRAM (put the rods all the way in) or add something like Boron and the chain reaction stops.
<span>The problem is the radioactive waste. Those isotopes break down and release heat spontaneously, no neutrons required. The only known way to stop or slow radioactive decay down is to slow time down by moving at relativistic speed or near orbit to a black hole.</span>
