Solution
To arrange these solutions in order of decreasing acidity, we first need to understand the nature of each solution:
a) 0.1M NaOH - Sodium hydroxide is a strong base, not an acid.
b) 0.1M HCl - Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid.
c) 0.1M ammonium chloride - Ammonium chloride is a weak acid.
d) 0.1M sodium ethanoate - Sodium ethanoate (or sodium acetate) is a salt that can act as a weak base, not an acid.
So, in order of decreasing acidity, the arrangement would be:
b) 0.1M HCl (strong acid) c) 0.1M ammonium chloride (weak acid) a) 0.1M NaOH (base) d) 0.1M sodium ethanoate (weak base)
So, the correct answer is b, c, a, d.
