Answer :

Answer: Since the volume of the solution increases, the molarity decreases. Thus, for an acidic solution, the pH will increase, whereas for a basic solution, the pH will decrease.

Yes, the pH of the solution will change. For an acid, it will increase and for a base, it will decrease

What is pH ?

This is simply a measure of the acidity / alkalinity of a solution.

The pH measures the hydrogen ion concentration while the pOH measures the hydroxide ion concentration

Mathematically, it expressed as

pH = –Log [H⁺]

The molarity of Hydrogen ion [H⁺] is given by

Molarity of [H⁺]= mole of [H⁺] /  Volume

From the formula, we can see that the molarity is inversely proportional to the volume.

Thus an increase in the volume will decrease the molarity of [H⁺]. This also will affect the pH.

However, it should be noted that as the pH increases, pOH decreases and as pH decreases, pOH increases.
