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.

Answer:
2 Fe(iii)2O3 + 3 C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2
Explanation:
First of all, you have to translate the words into an equation.
Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> Fe + CO2
The easiest way to tackle this is to start with the Oxygens and balance them. They must balance by going to the greatest common factor which is 6. So you multiply the molecule by whatever it takes to get the Oxygens to 6
2 Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> Fe + 3 CO2
Now work on the irons. There 2 on the left and just 1 on the right. So you need to multiply the iron by 2.
2 Fe(iii)2O3 + C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2
Finally it is the turn of the carbons. There are 3 on the right, so you must make the carbon on the left = 3
2 Fe(iii)2O3 + 3 C ==> 2 Fe + 3 CO2
And you are done.
A hypothesis is given to explain a phenomena which has not been
explained till then.
it can be supported by an experiment if that experiment gets the other
results regarding that particular phenomena in agreement with that being
predicted by the hypothesis
Answer:
d) An atom of arsenic has one more valence electron and more electron shells than an atom of silicon, so the conductivity increases because the arsenic atom loses the electron.
Explanation:
This is an example of a n-type semiconductor. The additional electron introduced to the 'grid' of silicon atoms causes an increase in the conductivity of the silicon. This additional electron is introduced as arsenic loses its extra electron.
