Sorting is a method that could separate those materials
Atomic number shows the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. If the atomic number is 30, then it has 30 protons. The question says it is neutral, so it must have the same amount of protons and electrons.
A is the correct answer based on this.
PH scale is used to determine how acidic or basic a solution is.
we have been given the hydrogen ion concentration. Using this we can calculate pH,
pH = - log[H⁺]
pH = - log (1 x 10⁻¹ M)
pH = 1
using pH can calculate pOH
pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 14 - 1
pOH = 13
using pOH we can calculate the hydroxide ion concentration
pOH = - log [OH⁻]
[OH⁻] = antilog(-pOH)
[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹³ M
hydroxide ion concentration is 10⁻¹³ M
