pH of the buffer solution is 1.76.
Chemical dissociation of formic acid in the water:
HCOOH(aq) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)
The solution of formic acid and formate ions is a buffer.
[HCOO⁻] = 0.015 M; equilibrium concentration of formate ions
[HCOOH] + [HCOO⁻] = 1.45 M; sum of concentration of formic acid and formate
[HCOOH] = 1.45 M - 0.015 M
[HCOOH] = 1.435 M; equilibrium concentration of formic acid
pKa = -logKa
pKa = -log 1.8×10⁻⁴ M
pKa = 3.74
Henderson–Hasselbalch equation: pH = pKa + log(cs/ck)
pH = 3.74 + log (0.015 M/1.435 M)
pH = 3.74 - 1.98
pH = 1.76

Answer:
a. A beta particle has a negative charge. d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron.
Explanation:
Identify the correct descriptions of beta particles.
a. A beta particle has a negative charge. YES. A beta particle is originated in the following nuclear reaction: ¹₀n ⇒ ¹₁H + ⁰₋₁e (beta particle.)
b. A beta particle contains neutrons. NO. It is a electron originated in the nucleus.
c. A beta particle is less massive than a gamma ray. NO. Gamma rays don't have mass while a beta particle has a mass which is half of one thousandth of the mass of a proton.
d. A beta particle is a high-energy electron. YES. Beta particles are nuclear originated hig-energy electrons.
The charge of a proton is positive.
The new pressure would be = 4.46 atm
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
V₁=6.7 L(at STP, 1 atm 273 K)
V₂=1.5 L
Required
The new pressure
Solution
Boyle's Law
At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied
P₂ = (P₁V₁)/V₂
P₂ = (1 atm x 6.7 L)/1.5 L
P₂ = 4.46 atm
1 mol of formic acid is correct. There are two oxygen atoms in formic acid, compared to just one for the other molecules.
