If the hydronium ion concentration is increased, the pH of the solution decreases.

Answer:

The pH would decrease and the solution would become more acidic

Explanation:

pH of a solution is a measure of its hydronium ion (H3O+) concentration. Mathematically it is given as:

pH = -log[H3O+] -------(1)\\\\i.e. [H3O+] = 10^{-pH} ------(2)\\

It is given that pH of the solution = 2.4

Therefore based on equation (2), the [H3O+] would be:

[H3O+] = 10^{-2.4} = 3.98*10^{-3} M

If the [H3O+] concentration were increased then based on equation (1) the pH of the solution would decrease i.e. it would become more acidic.

For example, lets say that the new [H3O+] = 5.0 * 10⁻³ M, then

pH = -log[5*10^{-3} ] = 2.3

Which answer provides the correct name for name the following hydrocarbon?
natulia [17]
I think the correct answer would be the third option. The correct name for the hydrocarbon described above would be 2-heptyne. It has a chemical formula written as CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - C ≡ C - CH3. Counting the number of carbons, we have 7 carbon atoms so we use the prefix hepta-. Since it has a triple bond then it is an alkyne. So, it would be named as heptyne. The triple bond is located on the second carbon atom so we write 2 before the name to indicate the location of the triple bond. The name of the compound would be 2-heptyne.

The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause
Flura [38]
The disturbance of a supersaturated solution will cause precipitation. A supersaturated solution is a solution that contains more solute than the solvent can dissolve. When this type of solution is disturbed like when it is moved, the formation of a solid is observed immediately.
