The given compound has a total charge of +1. To determine its concentration in a solution of 0.05 M NaOH, we need to consider that the reaction between NaOH and the compound will result in neutralization. NaOH + HF1F1F1S1^F1F1F10 → Na+ + F1F1F1S1^¹⁶ + H2O Since NaOH has a concentration of 0.05 M and it reacts in a 1:1 ratio with the compound, the concentration of the compound will also be 0.05 M. However, we need to consider that the compound has three fluorine atoms and three sulfur atoms, so we need to multiply the concentration by 3^3 = 27. 0.05 M x 27 = 1.35 M or 1.4 M (rounded to one significant figure) The closest answer choice is B, which gives a concentration of 1.3 M (rounded to one significant figure).
