<u>Answer:</u> The pH of the solution is 1.703
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Concentration of monochloroacetic acid = 0.31 M
The chemical equation for the dissociation of monochloroacetic acid follows:

<u>Initial:</u> 0.31
<u>At eqllm:</u> 0.31-x x x
The expression of
for above equation follows:
![K_a=\frac{[H^+][C_2H_2ClO_2^-}}{[HC_2H_2ClO_2]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K_a%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BC_2H_2ClO_2%5E-%7D%7D%7B%5BHC_2H_2ClO_2%5D%7D)
We are given:

Putting values in above equation follows:

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative.
To calculate the pH of the solution, we use the equation:
![pH=-\log[H^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5BH%5E%2B%5D)

Hence, the pH of the solution is 1.703
Answer:
Repetition
Explanation:
In the world of science, experiments are regularly conducted to test out hypotheses. These experiments are however, not conducted by scientist once to derive a result. They are rather conducted multiple times (repeated) to ascertain the accuracy i.e not as a result of random occurrence. The experiments that undergo multiple trials are said to undergo REPETITION.
This is the case of the scientist in this question, who is conducting an experiment to test what temperature causes the fastest growth rate in sunflower plants. He conducted the experiment multiple times, making it an example of REPETITION.
N.B: Replication is when the experiment is re-conducted by another scientist to see if same result is derived.
Instability
Explanation:
Isotopes decays because they are unstable. Stable isotopes do not decay.
- For every atomic nucleus, there is a specific neutron/proton ratio.
- This ratio ensure that a nuclide is stable.
- For example, fluorine F, is 10/9 stable.
- Any nucleus with a neutron/proton combination different from its stability ratio either too many neutrons or too many protons will become unstable.
- Such nuclide will split into one or more other nuclei with the emission of small particles of matter and considerable amount of energy.
