pH value 1 represents a solution with the lowest OH⁻ion concentration.
<u>Explanation:</u>
pH is given by the expression as the negative logarithm to the base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions.
pH = -log₁₀[H⁺]
If the pH is lower than 7, pH < 7 then it is acidic
If the pH = 7, then it is neutral
If the pH > 7, then it is basic
If pH is 1 then the solution is showing mostly acidic character,which is least basic in its character.
So if the pH is 1, which is most acidic and least basic solution that is lowest OH⁻ ion concentration.
Between phosphorous, sulfur, chlorine and argon, argon is the element that's the least likely to form an ionic bond with sodium.
Temperature will raise and water will evaporate
The answer would be A. Genotype
Answer:
B: electronegativity
Explanation:
Electronegativity is the measure of how strongly atoms attract bonding electrons to themselves.
A is incorrect because Atomic radius though decreases as you go from lithium to fluorine of the periodic table. Atomic radius increases when you go from either top to bottom of the periodic table, or if you go from right to left. So answer A is inaccurate.
C is incorrect because in period 2, all the elements have two electron subshells. For example, Al has 13 electrons. So it has two electron subshells. This is since the first subshell has only two valence electrons and while the second subshell in Al has 11 valence electrons. Therefore, it is inaccurate to say this answer.
D is incorrect because in the first shell, you can only have a max of two electrons. The first shell neither decreases or increases. Therefore, D is inaccurate too.
B is correct because as you go from the periodic table from left to right, the electronegativity and ionization energy increases. This is since the more valence electrons an element has, the more electronegative is. Fluorine for example is desperately trying to get one more electron to have a total of 8 electrons. It wants to have a full shell. Therefore, B is the most relevant answer.
