Answer: Protons

WHY?
Changing electrons will only result in the same element having different charges and hence, changing it's chemical properties.

Changing neutrons will not change an element but it will result in an isotope forming instead. (Isotopes are elements of the same type with different neutron numbers.)

However, changing the proton number would immediately change the nucleus composition, resulting in a change in element with a negative charge as there are more electrons than protons. This results in a expansion in valance electrons's distance from the nucleus. This results in a change in chemical properties of the element.

Therefore, a change in Protons is the answer.

What is the pH of a 0.0042 M hydrochloric acid solution?
babymother [125]

Answer:

E) 2.38

Explanation:

The pH of any solution , helps to determine the acidic strength of the solution ,

i.e. ,

  • Lower the value of pH , higher is its acidic strength

and ,

  • Higher the value of pH , lower is its acidic strength .

pH is given as the negative log of the concentration of H⁺ ions ,

hence ,

pH = - log H⁺

From the question ,

the concentration of the solution is 0.0042 M , and being it a strong acid , dissociates completely to its respective ions ,

Therefore , the concentration of H⁺ = 0.0042 M .

Hence , using the above equation , the value of pH can be calculated as follows -

pH = - log H⁺

pH = - log ( 0.0042 M )

pH =  2.38 .
