For the diprotic weak acid H2A, Ka1=3.3×10−6 and Ka2=6.8×10−9 . What is the pH of a 0.0400 M solution of H2A ?

Van der waals forces are temporary electromagnetic forces established between uncharged atoms. some neutral molecules, when close together, can become temporarily “charged,” as electrons move around the atom. water is a polar molecule, the side of the molecule that the hydrogens bond to being more positive, and the opposite side bound to the lone pairs of electrons being more negative. this means that it participates in dipole-dipole interaction (non-polar exhibits dispersion forces), and it has the capacity for hydrogen bonding.

The surface of the water droplet is held together by the attraction between molecules. in order for water to flow more easily into these small spaces, you need to decrease its surface tension. you can do this by adding soap, which is a surfactant (a material that decreases the surface tension of a liquid).
