Consider a 1.0 L solution which is 0.40 M CH3CO2H and 0.2 M CH3CO2Na (Ka for CH3CO2H = 1.8 x 10−5). Calculate the pH of the original soultion, the pH after 0.10 mol of HCl is added to the original solution, and the pH after 0.20 mol of NaOH is added to the original solution. Calculate all the pH values to two decimal places. Assume no volume change on addition. Please explain and /or show work please.

A particle of diameter 0.2 μmand density 1 g cm-3is being carried by an airstream at 1 atm and 298 K in they direction with a velocity of 100 cm s-1. The particle enters a charging device and acquires a charge of two electrons (the charge of a single electron is 1.6 x 10-19C) and moves into an electric filed of constant potential gradient Ex= 1000 V cm-1perpendicular to the direction of flow. (Hint: The effect of gravity and drag force can be ignored.) (a)Determine the characteristic relaxation time of the particle. (b) Plot the particle trajectory assuming that it starts at the origin at time zero. (Please show detailed steps and equations used to plot the trajectory as marks will be given for that.)

Flextronchip, an OEM manufacturer, has a fifth-generation chip for cell phones, with chip specification of 0.2 ± 0.0002 mm for the distance between two adjacent pins. The loss due to a defective chip has been estimated as $36.
Required:
1. Compute the value of k, the cost coefficient in the Taguchi quality loss function (QLF), L(x) = k(x − T)2.
2. Assume that the quality control manager takes a sample of 100 chips from the production process. The results are as follows:
| Measurement | Frequency | ||
| 0.1996 | 4 | ||
| 0.1997 | 5 | ||
| 0.1998 | 11 | ||
| 0.1999 | 10 | ||
| 0.2000 | 45 | ||
| 0.2001 | 9 | ||
| 0.2002 | 7 | ||
| 0.2003 | 5 | ||
| 0.2004 | 4 | ||

Part 1
The probability of observing a certain event is 0.2. Suppose we make repeated observations until we have observed the desired event three times. What is the probability that we make five observations in order to have observed the desired event three times.? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
Part 2
A probability of failure on any given trial is given as 0.01.
Use the Poisson approximation to the binomial to find the (approximate) probability of at least five failures in 200 trials? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
