Answer:

-4

Explanation:

It went from a 7 to a 2 and 7-2 is 4, so it changed by 4 and it went down by 4.

Assuming that there is missing information in this question I’m just going to go ahead and say that it’s lower.

HNO3 (nitric acid) is a very strong acid which should be found on the lower end of the pH scale. While water, on the other hand, is neutral and found at a pH of 7.

So if you add one drop of a strong acid into a neutral solution of 100ml let’s say, one can assume that the pH of that solution is now very low and probably found between 1-3 on a pH scale.

Reminder:

-Acids are found between 1-6 on the pH scale. The lower the number the stronger the acid

-Bases are found between 8-14 on the pH scale. The higher the number the stronger the base

What is an ion and how is it formed?
grin007 [14]

Answer: Ions are an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons. They are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule and have full outer valence electron shells.

Explanation:

When they lose electrons, they become positively charged and are named cations. When they gain electrons, they are negatively charged and are named anions.
