The first question's answer is
<span>
Low pH means the solution is acidic; if the solution is acidic, that
means that there are hydronium ions in solution (H3O+). For example,
hydrochloric acid dissolves into H+ ions and Cl- ions, and the H+ ions
rreact with water like this:
H+ + H2O --> H3O+
If you want to get mathematical, pH is defined as the negative log of the concentration of hydronium ions.
Thus, if there are a lot of hydronium ions, the solution will have a low, or acidic, pH. Hope this helps^-^</span>
Answer:
The elements are in the same column/group IIA.
See the explanation below, please.
Explanation:
The elements Calcium, Strontium, Beryllium, Magnesium, Barium and Radio, belong to the group of alkaline earth metals located in group IIA of the periodic table, they require 2 electrons to complete their octet (they have 2 valence electrons). reagents than alkali metals.
