Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

The unit for measuring relative acidity or alkalinity of a fluid is called pH. Simply stated, pH is the ratio of acids to bases. Hydrogen ion concentration (H+) is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ions in solution. Because the scale of H+ is logarithmic, in order for the pH to change by one unit (e.g., changing from 3 to 4), there must be a 10-fold change in H+. The pH of a substance is measured in a range from 1 to 14 . A 1 on the pH scale indicates the most acidic, and 14 indicates the most alkaline. Water is considered neutral at 7.0.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
