Answer : The correct option is B (clay, slit, sand).
Explanation :
Soil particles are of three types : Sand, Slit and clay. Most of the soils particles are made up of a combination of sand, slit and clay.
Particle size range of the sand = 2.00 -0.05 mm
Particle size range of the slit = 0.05 -0.002 mm
Particle size range of the sand = less than 0.002 mm
Sand is the largest soil particle, clay is the smallest soil particle and slit particle is present in between the sand & clay particle.
Therefore, the order from smaller to larger sediment particles is
Clay > Slit > Sand
KOH is a strong base and HBr is a strong acid and completely dissociates.
The balanced equation for the reaction is;
KOH + HBr ---> KBr + H₂O
Stoichiometry of acid to base is 1:1
The number of KOH moles reacted - 0.50 M / 1000 mL/L x 48.0 mL = 0.024 mol
number of HBr moles reacted - 0.25 M/ 1000 mL/L x 96.0 mL = 0.024 mol
the number of H⁺ ions are equal to number of OH⁻ ions.
Then the solution is neutral.
pH of neutral solutions at 25 °C is 7.
Therefore pH is 7
A balanced equation is a prime example of the law of the conservation of mass as the number of atoms in the reactants is consistent with the number of atoms in the reactants meaning the amount of matter has not changed and no mass has been created or destroyed hence obeying the law.
