Which of the following explains why the pH of a hydroxylamine solution is lower than any of the other solutions?

Which of the following explains why the pH of a hydroxylamine solution is lower than any of the other solutions? Correct Answer The presence of the very electronegative oxygen inhibits the nitrogen atom from donating its electron pair.

C-These are all bases because the nitrogen atom is capable of reacting with a hydrogen ion by donating its lone pair to the hydrogen ion. The oxygen atom pulls electron density away from the nitrogen atom causing the nitrogen atom to attract the lone pair more strongly making it less able to donate the pair to a hydrogen ion.

A chemical solution appears green when the salt concentration is 8 grams per litre (gpl) and red when it is 10 gpl. Pure water was added to the solution of 1 litre of 15 gpl solution till it turned green. Then 125 ml of the green solution is taken out and x grams of salt is added to the green solution to make it red. Another 500 ml of the final solution was taken out and y litres of green solution is added to get a resultant solution of concentration 9.6 gpl.  Assume adding salt doesn’t change its volume and find the ratio of x and y.
