@ crimsonsnow000117
I'm not sure if the answer is right but it should go like this:
mol of KOH = 45/1000 x 0.183 = 0.008235mol
mol of HCl = 65/1000 x 0.145 = 0.009425mol
SInce KOH is an alkali and HCl is and acid, neutralisaton occurs and since there is a HCl is greater in amount than KOH, option E is eliminated.
KOH + HCl = KCl + H2O + excess HCl
amount of excess HCl = 0.009425 - 0.008235 = 0.00119mol
Since HCl is a strong acid, pH = -log[H+]
[H+] = 0.00119/(0.045+0.065) = 0.010818mol (5sf)
pH= -log(0.010818) = 1.966 (4sf)
thus ans is D.
Please correct me if Im wrong!

An easy way that I can think of it just add "such as" after every theme imaginable.
ex: ...and is packed full of almost every theme imaginable, such as wickedness, goodness, love, etc.

East of Eden, by John Steinbeck, is a novel filled with biblical allusions and almost every theme imaginable: wickedness, ethicality, love, rejection, guilt, and maternalism.
Just to let you know, the last "sentence" is a sentence fragment; therefore, it couldn't stand alone anyway.

15% of $60 is 60 x 0.15 = 9.

Can anyone do some thermal physics?
A spherical balloon is filled with helium atoms (Note: 1 atm = 101.3 kPa).
(i) What is the total translational KE of the atoms if the balloon has a diameter 41.0 cm at 38.0 °C and the pressure inside the balloon is 121.6 kPa?
Answer is 6580.0 J respectively but I dunno what to do.
