Question

What in the dilution of acid and base with water?​

Answer 1

Answer -

Diluting acids and bases. Adding water to an acid or base will change its pH. Water is mostly water molecules so adding water to an acid or base reduces the concentration of ions in the solution. ... Similarly, when an alkali is diluted with water the concentration of OH - ions decreases.
