When the number of hydroxide ions decrease then the level of hydronium ions in a solution increases.

pH of solution gives idea about the acidity or basicity of the solution and pH will be represented as:

pH = -log[H⁺]

If in any solution number of hydroxide ions decreases as compared to the concentration of hydronium ions, then the concentration of hydronium ions increases as a result of which acidity of the solution also increases.

Hence, level of hydronium ions increases.

4. The volume of a sample of a gas at STP is 200.0 ml. If the pressure is increased to 4.00 atmospheres (temperature constant),

Answer : The value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

or,

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure at STP = 1 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure = 4.00 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume at STP = 200.0 mL

$V_2$ = final volume = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$1atm\times 200.0mL=4.00atm\times V_2$

$V_2=50.0mL$

Therefore, the value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

There are two binary compounds of mercury and oxygen. heating either of them results in the decomposition of the compound, with

grandymaker [24]

$\text{Hg} \text{O}$ and $\text{Hg}_{2} \text{O}$ .

Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,

$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure})$
$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss})$

First compound:

$m(\text{O}) = m(\text{loss}) = 0.6498 - 0.6018 = 0.048 \; g$
$m(\text{Hg}) = m(\text{residure}) = 0.6018 \; g$

$n = m/M$ ; $0.6498 \; g$ of the first compound would contain

$n(\text{O atoms}) = 0.048 \; g / 16 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$
$n(\text{Hg atoms}) = 0.6018 \; g / 200.58 \; g \cdot mol^{-1}= 0.003 \; mol$

Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a $1:1$ ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be $\text{Hg} \text{O}$ where the subscript "1" is omitted.
