Explanation:
According to the question, it is established that the pain caused by a lot of insect bites owes to the acidity of the insect bites.
If this is true, then there is an urgent need to neutralize the acidic insect bite using a basic substance.
Hence the pH of the creams used to treat insect bites should be basic(having a high pH).
2. The compound methene can not exist because it is supposed to be derived from the alkane called methane which contains only one carbon atom.
In order to form an alkene, there must be a double bond between two carbon atoms. This is not possible because there is only one carbon atom in the hypothetical methene. Hence, a compound named methene cannot exist.
<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of weak acid is
moles.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the moles of KOH, we use the equation:

We are given:
Volume of solution = 43.81 mL = 0.04381 L (Conversion factor: 1L = 1000 mL)
Molarity of the solution = 0.0969 moles/ L
Putting values in above equation, we get:

The chemical reaction of weak monoprotic acid and KOH follows the equation:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of KOH reacts with 1 mole of weak monoprotic acid.
So,
of KOH will react with =
of weak monoprotic acid.
Hence, the number of moles of weak acid is
moles.
Really? Really!?
