In a driven reaction between 1 mole of NaOH and 1 mole of H2C3H2O4 identify the species of interest present in the solution as we add NaOH and state how to handle that solution to determine pH.

a. Before adding NaOH: H2C3H2O4 is the only thing present which will then undergo an equilibrium process and we can use an ice table to determine pH. Since it is a diprotic acid, we might need two ice tables.

b. After adding 0.5 mole of NaOH:

c. After adding 1.0 mole of NaOH:

d. After adding 1.5 mole of NaOH:

e. After adding 2.0 mole of NaOH:

Phosphorus acid, H3PO3(aq), is a diprotic oxyacid that is an important compound in industry and agriculture.
pKa1= 1.30
pKa2= 6.70
Calculate the pH for each of the following points in the titration of 50.0 mL of a 2.4 M H3PO3(aq) with 2.4 M KOH(aq).
a. before addition of any KOH
b. after addition of 25.0 mL of KOH
c. after addition of 50.0 mL of KOH
d. after addition of 75.0 mL of KOH.
e. after addition of 100.0 mL of KOH

please show your work as I really do want to understand the process. thank you so much :)

15 minutes An industrial organization has bought a specialized machine for $120,000 which will save $20,000 each year for 10 years. Straight Line (SL) basis depreciation should be taken into consideration with a depreciable life of 10 years. After tax MARR is 10% per year. Effective income tax rate is 40%. After 10 years, the machine will have zero salvage value. a) Draw a table showing Before Tax Cash Flow (BTCF) and After Tax Cash Flow (ATCF). b) Calculate the after tax PW and IRR. (Use interpolation method to find IRR). Is it feasible?

A polymer rod is tested to determine its viscoelastic response. The rod’s cross-section is square with the side of 5mm. The rod’s length before loading is 500mm. A tensile force of 500N is applied to the rod and the rod’s length under load was measured as a function of time. Instantly after applying the load, the rod is stretched to 508mm. After 24 and 48 hour under load, the rod’s length was measured as 550mm and 570mm, respectively. The load was then removedand the rod’s length was measured as 525mm after a long time after the removal of the force (consider this as the permanent length). Determine the parameters of the Burger’s model for describing this type of mechanical behavior.
