Abeaker contains 100 ml of naoh solution at ph = 13. a technician carefully pours into the beaker 10 ml of hcl at ph = 1. which of the following statements correctly describes the results of this mixing?
a. the concentration of na⁺ ion rises.
b. the concentration of cl⁻ ion will be 0.1m.
c. the concentration of undissociated h₂o molecules remains unchanged.
d. the ph of the beaker's contents will be neutral.
e. the ph of the beaker's contents falls.

Option (e) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, the beaker contains NaOH solution whose pH is 13. As pH of NaOH is greater than 7 so, it means that this solution is basic in nature.

Whereas pH of HCl solution is equal to 1. As its pH is less that 7 so, it is acidic in nature.

Hence, when we add 10 ml of HCl into 100 mL of NaOH then there will be a slight decrease in pH of the solution because an acid is being added into the NaOH solution.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement pH of the beaker's contents falls, correctly describes the results of this mixing.

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.

b. examine and describe cells
