Now a much-revered national memorial, the sunken battleship is a popular tourist site and everlasting remembrance of the events of December 7th in 1941 -- and all that followed.
I believe there are 2, the USS Arizona and the USS Utah. These ships were left submerged, but some of their equipment was removed and used on other vessels. The other ships were floated out and sent to shipyards for repair.

First of all, Pearl Harbor was and still is a part of country (we never declared war on Pearl Harbor). Second, I assume you're asking when we declared war on Japan BECAUSE of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was attacked on December 7, 1941. Roosevelt declared war on December 8th.
Japan conquered territory for raw materials; oil is one of those raw materials. The battleship fleet anchored at Pearl Harbor was to be eliminated, to prevent them from interferring with Japan's quest for territory.
