1.  The combination of anions and cations in water is controlled by
dissolving of minerals into water
precipitation of solid minerals and ionization of some constituents
all of this processes

Max/Min Score: [2.0/0.0]

 

2.  Why the concentration of the magnesium cations (Mg2+) in natural water is less then concentration of the calcium cations (Ca2+)
because the magnesium is not as abundant in rock as calcium
because the magnesium salts are less soluble then calcium salts
because the calcium salts are more soluble then magnesium salts

Max/Min Score: [2.0/0.0]

 

3.  The concentrations of hydrogen (H+) or hydroxide (OH-) ions solution can be equal to zero.
True
False

Max/Min Score: [2.0/0.0]

 

4.  How have to change the concentration of hydrogen (H+) in solution in order to increase its pH in 1?
increase in 1 mol/L
decrease by 10 time
decrease in 1 mol/L

Max/Min Score: [2.0/0.0]

 

5.  What is the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) ions in 1 ml from the solution if it is with pH = 13?
1013
6.02 · 1013
6.02 · 107
6.02 · 1010

Max/Min Score: [2.0/0.0]

 

6.  The total alkalinity includes the following compounds:
[OH-]; [HCO3-]; [CO32-]
[OH-]; [HCO3-]; [HCO3-], [CO32-]
