26. Which statement represents neutralization? 1. An Arrhenius acid and an Arrhenius base react to produce water and a salt. 2. An Arrhenius acid and salt a react to produce water and n Arrhenius base. 3. Water and an Arrhenius acid react to produce an Arrhenius base and a salt. 4. Water and a salt react to produce an Arrhenius base and an Arrhenius acid. |
1 | acid + base makes salt and water neutralization |

27. A tenfold increase in hydronium ion concentration
is represented by 1. a decrease of one unit of pH 2. a decrease of 10 units of pH 3. an increase of one unit of pH 4. an increase of 10 units of pH |
1 | hydronium H3O+ , produced from
acids so more acidic lower pH 10 has 1 zero, so the pH changes by one unit |

amount of energy per kilogram of reactant? 1. acid-base reaction 2. fission reaction 3. organic reaction 4. redox reaction |
2 | nuclear fission releases millions of times more energy than conventional reactions | |
30. Which risk is related to the radioactive isotopes
used to generate electricity? 1. depletion of fossil fuels 2. depletion of atmospheric ozone 3. exposure to acid rain 4. exposure to nuclear emissions |
4 | 1-3 have nothing to do with nuclear energy | |
