Vedclass · Answer

(D) The initial $pH$ of the solution is $2$. The concentration of hydronium ions $[H_3O^+]$ is given by the formula $[H_3O^+] = 10^{-pH}$.For $pH = 2$,$[H_3O^+]_{initial} = 10^{-2} \, M$.If the $pH$ is doubled,the new $pH = 2 	imes 2 = 4$.The new concentration of hydronium ions is $[H_3O^+]_{final} = 10^{-4} \, M$.The ratio of the final concentration to the initial concentration is $\frac{10^{-4}}{10^{-2}} = 10^{-2} = \frac{1}{100}$.Therefore,the concentration of hydronium ions decreases to $1/100$th of its original value.
