The half‑equivalence point of a titration occurs half way to the equivalence point, where half of the analyte has reacted to form its conjugate, and the other half still remains unreacted. If 0.480 moles of a monoprotic weak acid ( K a = 5.9 × 10 − 5 ) is titrated with NaOH , what is the pH of the solution at the half‑equivalence point?

Phosgene (carbonyl chloride), cocl2, is an extremely toxic gas that is used in manufacturing certain dyes and plastics. phosgene can be produced by reacting carbon monoxide and chlorine gas at high temperatures: co(g) cl2(g)⇌cocl2(g) carbon monoxide and chlorine gas are allowed to react in a sealed vessel at 477 ∘c . at equilibrium, the concentrations were measured and the following results obtained: gas partial pressure (atm) co 0.830 cl2 1.30 cocl2 0.220 what is the equilibrium constant, kp, of this reaction
