Question

What is the effect of dilution on an acid or base?

Answer 1

Answer:

diluting an acid decreases the concentration of h+( aq) ions which

increases the pH level of the solution

towards 7, making it less acidic

however , the pH level of an acidic

solution cannot become greater than

7, because the water you add to

dilute it is not alkaline.

Explanation:

hope it helps you!!!

Answer 2

What is the effect of dilution on an acid or base?

${\huge {\underline{\mathfrak {\green {Answer}}}}}$

${\boxed{\red{\tt{Dilution}}}}$

Dilution is the process of decreasing the concentration of a solute in a solution, usually simply by mixing with more solvent like adding more water to a solution. To dilute a solution means to add more solvent without the addition of more solute.

${\bigstar{\underline{\blue{\tt{Dilution\:on\: Acids\:and\:bases}}}}}$

Water is mostly water molecules so adding water to an acid or base reduces the concentration of ions in the solution. When an acidic solution is diluted with water the concentration of H + ions decreases and the pH of the solution increases towards 7.
