The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the effect of shaking a 0.1 M CH₃COOH solution with activated charcoal, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Components**: We have a solution of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) at a concentration of 0.1 M. Activated charcoal is used as an adsorbent in this process. 2. **Identify the Process**: When the acetic acid solution is shaken with activated charcoal, the acetic acid molecules are adsorbed onto the surface of the charcoal. This means that the acetic acid is being removed from the solution and held on the charcoal. 3. **Effect on Concentration**: Since the acetic acid is being adsorbed onto the activated charcoal, the amount of acetic acid present in the solution decreases. Therefore, the concentration of acetic acid in the remaining solution will be less than the initial concentration of 0.1 M. 4. **Conclusion**: After filtering out the activated charcoal, the concentration of acetic acid in the solution will decrease due to the adsorption process. 5. **Select the Correct Option**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is that the concentration of the acid will decrease. ### Final Answer: The concentration of acetic acid will decrease. ---
