Explanation:
The HF is about five million times as strong as phenol, so it will be by far the major contributor of hydronium ions. We can ignore the contribution from the phenol.
1 .Calculate the hydronium ion concentration
We can use an ICE table to organize the calculations.
HF + H₂O ⇌ H₃O⁺ + F⁻
I/mol·L⁻¹: 2.7 0 0
C/mol·L⁻¹: -x +x +x
E/mol·L⁻¹: 2.7 - x x x

B is the answer I think hope this helps
The subatomic particle that identifies the atom is the number of protons. This is what distinguishes an element that is is flammmable, hydrogen to one that is essential component in water, oxygen.
Basalt, rhyolite, andesite, and obsidian could all be answers.
