Answer:

Tsunamis are caused by violent seafloor movement associated with earthquakes, landslides, lava entering the sea, seamount collapse, or meteorite impact. The most common cause is earthquakes. See the percentages on the right for the geological events that cause tsunamis. Note that 72% of tsunamis are generated by earthquakes. A disturbance that displaces a large water mass from its equilibrium position can cause a tsunami.

If a solution is considered to be basic, which of the following is true about the hydroxide ion concentration?
Anna [14]

The correct answer is option C, the concentration of the hydroxide ion is greater than the concentration of the hydronium ion

Reason -

An acidic solution has an ability to contribute hydrogen ion. Here a hydronium ion (H3O+) has an extra H+ ion along with a water molecule. Thus presence of hydronium ion in larger amount than the hydroxide ion would make the solution acidic. Thus, the concentration of hydroxide ion should be less than the hydronium ion to make the solution a basic solution.
