They're based on the results of your testing.
The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.
Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.
The element which has the electronic configuration is CHLORINE.
The atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons in its outermost shell. Because it needs only one more electrons to have a stable octet, it usually react with metals from group one of the periodic table who are normally willing to donate the single electrons in their outermost shells. The ground state electronic configuration of chlorine atom is 1S^2 2S^2 2P^6 3S^2 3P^5.
