Student C: A big, greedy dog stealing away a bone from a smaller dog

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is defined as the bond which occurs when there will be transfer of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, potassium donating an electrons to chlorine atom will result in the formation of an ionic bond.

So, the analogy presented by student C, shows that greedy dog stole away the bone from a smaller dog. This is similar to an atom whose one valence electron is readily taken away by an electron deficient atom.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, student C: A big, greedy dog stealing away a bone from a smaller dog, presented a correct analogy.

Which statement best describes the pH of pure water?
Ray Of Light [21]

The pH of pure water is neutral because the concentration of hydronium ions equals that of hydroxide ions.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is one of the most important constituents of living being. It is said that there is no life without water. So that water need to neutral in nature to save life. Pure water is composed of hydronium H^{+} and hydroxide \left(O H^{-}\right) ions. It is known that hydronium ions are acidic in nature with concentration of 1 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{M} / \mathrm{L}.

Similarly, the hydroxide ions which are basic in nature will be in same concentration as that of hydronium ions. So, as the concentration of basic and acidic elements are equal with the same strength of pH, the combination of these ions lead to formation of pure water with the pH being neutral.
