A asystem at equilibrium stops
Answer:
One AMU or 1 Atomic Mass Unit
Answer: If the light ray hits the boundary at an angle which is not perpendicular to or parallel to the surface, then it will change direction and appear to `bend'

We can set up an ICE table for the reaction:
HClO H+ ClO-
Initial 0.0375 0 0
Change -x +x +x
Equilibrium 0.0375-x x x
We calculate [H+] from Ka:
Ka = 3.0x10^-8 = [H+][ClO-]/[HClO] = (x)(x)/(0.0375-x)
Approximating that x is negligible compared to 0.0375 simplifies the equation to
3.0x10^-8 = (x)(x)/0.0375
3.0x10^-8 = x2/0.0375
x2 = (3.0x10^-8)(0.0375) = 1.125x10^-9
x = sqrt(1.125x10^-9) = 0.0000335 = 3.35x10^-5 = [H+]
in which 0.0000335 is indeed negligible compared to 0.0375.
We can now calculate pH:
pH = -log [H+] = - log (3.35 x 10^-5) = 4.47
