Answer:

Thermocline separate these two layers.

Explanation:

Ocean consist of three major layers on the basis of temperature.

1. Upper layer

2. Deep layer

3. Thermocline

Upper layer:

The first layer is called upper layer which is present on the surface and directly expose to the sun. The sun heat up this upper layer easily and warm it.

Deep layer

The deep layer is present below the thermocline. It is present in deep where sunlight can not approach to it and its temperature remain low.

Thermocline

It is the middle layer, present between the upper and deep layer. It separated the upper layer from deep layer. Its upper portion is warmer while lower is colder.

alexdok [17]

Answer:

The value of dissociation constant of the monoprotic acid is 1.099\times 10^{-3}.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution = 2.46

pH=-\log[H^+]

2.46=-\log[H^+]

[H^+]=0.003467 M

HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-

Initially

0.0144         0      0

At equilibrium

(0.0144-x)       x       x

The expression if an dissociation constant is given by :

K_a=\frac{[A^-][H^+]}{[HA]}

K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(0.0144-x)}

x=[H^+]=0.003467 M

K_a=\frac{0.003467 \times 0.003467 }{(0.0144-0.003467 )}

K_a=1.099\times 10^{-3}

The value of dissociation constant of the monoprotic acid is 1.099\times 10^{-3}.
