<h3>Answer:</h3>

The higher the hydronium ion concentration of a solution, the <u>lower</u> its pH.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a substance.
  • We calculate pH by using;

                  pH = -log[H+]

  • The lower the pH of a solution the more acidic it is and the higher the pH the more basic or alkaline it is.
  • pH =-log[H+] =-log[H₃O+]
  • From this relationship, the higher the hydronium ions concentration of a solution the lower the pH and the more acidic a solution is.

For example,

Solution A with a [H₃O+] of 0.003 M will have a pH of

pH = -log 0.003 M

     = 2.52

While, a solution B with a [H₃O+] of 0.025 M will have a pH of

pH = -log 0.25 M

    = 1.60

Therefore, the higher the concentration of hydronium ion of a solution the lower its pH is.

One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is a(n)______ , of which there are 92
Nadusha1986 [10]

One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is an element.

The first chemical element is hydrogen (atomic number is 1) and the last is oganesson (atomic number is 118).

Elements are scheduled in Periodic table, ordered by their atomic number.

Other example, krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36.

Krypton has 36 electron and 36. It is noble gas (group 18).

Noble gases are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.

Which of the following distinguishes a nuclear reaction from a chemical reaction? a.It involves atoms.
MissTica
The option that distinguishes a nuclear reaction from a chemical reaction is D. there is a change in the nucleus.
During a nuclear reaction, two light nuclei combine in order to create a new, heavier one which is different than those two original ones and has additional particles that it didn't have originally. This is what makes the difference between these two reactions.
