Answer:
a. 9.2
b. 4.4
c. 6.3
Explanation:
In order to calculate the pH of each solution, we will use the definition of pH.
pH = -log [H⁺]
(a) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 9.2
Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.
(b) [H⁺] = 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ = 4.4
Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.
(c) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ M
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ = 6.3
Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

Explanation:
A mixture in which there is uniform distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a homogeneous mixture.
For example, sugar dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
On the other hand, a mixture in which there is uneven distribution of solute particles into the solvent is known as a heterogeneous mixture.
For example, sand present in water is a heterogeneous mixture.
Comment on given situations will be as follows.
(a) Air in a closed bottle - It is a homogeneous mixture because there will be even distribution of other gases that are present in air.
(b) Air over New York City - It is a heterogeneous mixture because there will be presence of some dust particles, fog or smoke into the air. Distribution of all these particles will be uneven. This will make air over New York City heterogeneous in nature.

Explanation:
For this question, we have to remember the effect of an atom with high <u>electronegativity</u> as "Br". If the "Br" atom is closer to the carboxylic acid group (COOH) we will have an <u>inductive effect</u>. Due to the electronegativity of Br, the electrons of the C-H bond would be to the Br, then this bond would be <u>weaker</u> and the compound will be more acid (because is easier to produce the hydronium ion 
).
With this in mind, for A in the last compound, we have <u>2 Br atoms</u> near to the acid carboxylic group, so, we will have a high inductive effect, then the C-H would be weaker and we will have <u>more acidity</u>. Then we will have the compound with only 1 Br atom and finally, the last compound would be the one without Br atoms.
In B, the difference between the molecules is the <u>position</u> of the "Br" atom in the molecule. If the Br atom is closer to the acid group we will have a <u>higher inductive effect</u> and more <u>acidity</u>.
