Because the nuclear charge increases across a period and so it has a stronger pull on the outer electrons and will pull in the radius
Oxidation is when a substance gains oxygen molecules. For example when hydrogen reacts with oxygen it forms H₂O. The H₂ has been oxidised.
Answer:
decreased by a factor of 10
Explanation:
pH is defined in such a way that;
pH= −log10(H)
Where H represents the concentration of Hydronium or Hydrogen ions
Given that pH is changed from 1 to 2,
By rearranging the above formula , we get 10−pH = H
- if pH=1,H=10−1=0.1M
- if pH=2,H=10−2=0.01M
Therefore, 0.1/0.01 = 10 and 0.1 > 0.01
Hence, the concentration of hydronium ions in the solution is decreased by a factor of 10
