The student must have made an error in her measurement in the concentration of hydrogen ion in the basic solution given. From her measurement, the concentration is 1 × 10−3 M. If we calculate the pH, we get:
pH = -log ( 1 × 10−3) = 3
A pH of 3 does not signifies a basic solution it is in the acidic range. So, the measurement is wrong.
Answer:
the molecules get close together and the water expands
Explanation:
Magnets with the same polarity (N-N or S-S) repel one another along the same direction. This agrees to the common rule that like poles repel and unlike poles attract. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
