A student following the procedure similar to that in this lab prepared four solutions by adding 12.25, 23.00, 25.50, and 34.50 mL of 8.25 x 10-2 M NaOH solution to 50.00 mL of a 0.152 M solution of weak acid. The solutions were labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively. Each of the solutions was diluted to a total volume of 250 mL with DI water. The pH readings of these solutions were: (1) 6.64 (2) 6.98 (3) 7.04 (4) 7.23 Find:

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown below: reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of an element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? their identity changes in both reaction a and reaction b. their identity changes in reaction a but not in reaction b. their identity changes in reaction b but not in reaction a. their identity remains the same in both reaction a and reaction b.
