Let us understand all the terms
Hydration : this is the addition of water to anything. It can be addition of water to double or triple bond, absorption of water by a substance. so it cannot be loss of water.
Deliquescent : it is the absorption of water by a substance and getting dissolved in it. Like NaOH is a deliquescent substance.
Solvation: It is the phenomenon where a substance get surrounded by solvent molecules. If solvent is water it is known as hydration.
Thus the answer is
effloresce : where a substance loses water.
They are uniform in the amount of protons and electrons but can differ in the amount of neutrons.
Answer:
Explanation:
Step 1
The question is based on the concept of PH and pOH calculations.
pH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydronium Ion concentration.
while pOH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydroxide ion concentration of the solution.
Step 2
[H+] = 7.7*10-7 M
pH = -log[H+]
= -log ( 7.7*10-7 )
= 6.12
Step 3
pOH = 14 - pH
= 14 - 6.11
= 7.89
