The pH of a solution is tested and found to be 5.5. What can be concluded about the solution?

The correct answer is - option 1. the solution is acidic.

Explanation:

The pH is a scale to measure or check the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution. The lower values on the pH scale indicate the acidity of the solution as on the pH bar 0 indicating the highest acidic value and the higher value indicates the alkaline or basic value of the solution and 14 indicating the highest alkaline. The pH of water is 7 which is a neutral condition.

Therefore, the pH of a solution with 5.5 on pH solution represents the acidic property of the solution, however, it is slightly acidic as it is near the neutral value.

The solution is acidic

Explanation:

The lower the number, the more acidic the solution is

they it depends on if one believes about radioactivity, they make a geiger counter beep but maybe it was going to beep anyway electronics do wierd things all the time or it was programmed to beep near certain metals.

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
