<h2>Answer:</h2>

The fluorine, iodine, and chlorine are <u>c) They are similar to noble gases</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Nobel gas refers to those substances which doesn't have any vacant shell. They are completely filled. They are electron haters and are really hard to make them involve in chemical reaction. On the other hand, gases such as chlorine, bromine and iodine are called as halogens. They have ability to accommodate one electron in their valence shell as they have 7 already.

Thus, it can be inferred that gases such as chlorine, bromine and iodine are not similar to Nobel gas and thus the statement C which states they are similar to Nobel gas is considered as false.

Calculate the hydroxyl ion concentration<br>in 0.02M solution of H2SO4<br>

sergij07 [2.7K]

In a given solution, the concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions are related to each other by the following expression:

pH + pOH = 14

where, pH = - log[H+] and pOH = - log [OH-]

In this case, the concentration of sulfuric acid is given as 2.1 x 10^-4 M. Since each molecule of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) contains 2 atoms of hydrogen, the concentration of hydrogen ions in this solution is twice that of sulfuric acid. That is,

Concentration of H+ ions = 2 x 2.1 x 10^-4

= 4.2 x 10^-4 M

This means, pH = -log (4.2 x 10^-4) = 3.38

Since pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 3.38 = 10.62

This means, 10.62 = -log [OH-]

Solving the equation, we get [OH-] = 2.4 x 10^-11 M.

Hope this helps.

The answer is either 38 g or 40.g KCLO3. If it 95% instead of 895%.
