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:
When the concentration of all the reactants increases, more molecules or ions interact to form new compounds, and the rate of reaction increases. When the concentration of a reactant decreases, there are fewer of that molecule or ion present, and the rate of reaction decreases.
Explanation:
For a gas containing 80% CH4 and 20% He is sent through a quart diffusion tube, the composition is mathematically given as
%He=12.5%
%CH4=87.5%
<h3>What is the
composition of the waste gas if 100 kg moles of gas are processed per minute?</h3>
Generally, the equation for the Material balance is mathematically given as
F=R+W
Therefore
100=0.20*1000+W
W=80kmol/min
In conclusion, waste gas compose
2.0/100*100=50/100*20+%*80
Hence
%He=12.5%
%CH4=87.5%

This statement is True! Lets think about it... When water boils, the water doesnt evaporate from the bottom of the bowl it evaporates from the top!
