Answer:

d. the conjugate base.

Explanation:

The general reaction of a weak acid, HA, with a strong base YOH, is:

HA + YOH → A⁻ + H₂O + Y⁻

<em>Where A⁻ is the conjugate base of the weak acid and Y⁻ usually is a strong electrolyte.</em>

<em />

That means after he complete reaction you don't have weak acid nor strong base, just conjugate base that will be in equilibrium with water, thus (Strong electrolyte doesn't change pH:

A⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HA + OH⁻

As the equilibrium is producing OH⁻, the pH of the solution is being affected for the conjugate base

Right option:

<h3>d. the conjugate base. </h3>

Answer:

Explanation:1. It is known that humans are in fact eating these tiny plastic particles, but fish aren't the only source. Bottled water, beer, honey, sea salt and tea bags have all been exposed as microplastic carriers, just to name a few.

2.The chemicals used in the production of plastic are toxic and detrimental to the human body. Chemicals in plastic-like lead, cadmium and mercury directly can come in contact with the humans. These toxins can cause cancers, congenital disabilities, immune system problems and childhood development issues.

3.Microplastics entering the human body via direct exposures through ingestion or inhalation can lead to an array of health impacts, including inflammation, genotoxicity, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and necrosis, which are linked to an array of negative health outcomes including cancer, cardiovascular diseases,

Why do materials interact to light differently?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Refracted (refraction) – the bending of transmitted light as it travels across the boundary of one material into another material in which it's speed is different. Unlike diffraction, this change in direction of light occurs because light is changing its speed in the different substances in it traveling in.
