It should be scientific law since a hypothesis is like a prediction and a theory could be used to explain something although it might not be true. There’s many theories just to explain one thing. So it should be scientific law
Answer:
pH = 12.8
Explanation:
HF + NaOH → F⁻ + Na⁺ + H₂O
<em>1 mole of HF reacts with 1 mole of NaOH</em>
<em />
Initial moles of HF and NaOH are:
HF = 0.018L × (0.308mol / L) = 5.544x10⁻³mol HF
NaOH = 0.023L × (0.361mol / L) = 8.303x10⁻³mol NaOH
That means moles of NaOH remains after reaction are:
8.303x10⁻³mol - 5.544x10⁻³mol = <em>2.759x10⁻³moles NaOH</em>
Total volume is 18.0mL + 23.0mL = 41.0mL = 0.0410L
Molar concentration of NaOH is
2.759x10⁻³moles NaOH / 0.0410L = 0.0673M = [OH⁻]
pOH = - log [OH⁻] = 1.17
As pH = 14 - pOH
<em>pH = 12.8</em>

The element X is Copper.
Explanation :
Reactive metals from 3d transition series like Cu are very reactive because their standard reduction potential values are low.
Hence, when treated with a acid it tends to liberate hydrogen gas.
Also, because of its low reduction potential value, it can easily displace lead and tin from their salt solutions.
