∙ 16y agopH doesnt increase anything. But a high pH reading indicates acidity while a low one indicates a base. A pH of about 6.5-7 is neutral (water).

∙ 9y agoThe pH will mainly change as a result of the presence of an acid or a base. When the pH is more than 7 it means it is basic and if it is below 7 it indicates acidity.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoReaction rate might be dependant on pH, but in most cases reactions -IF depending on pH anyhow- are faster at low pH (high acidity) than at neutral pH.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agopH is based off the number of H+ ions in a solution. An increase in pH shows that there are more free floating H+ while a decrease means there are less H+ ions.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoWhen the pH of a solution is increasing this solution become more and more basic.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoIf the base is added in the buffer, the pH of the buffer solution will increase, which can be monitored by pH meter
Wiki User
∙ 6y agoA high pH is associated with a high concentration of hydroxyl ions, -OH.

Will NaOH increase decrease or no change in pH when added to water?
increase
When blood CO2 levels increase does the pH increase or decrease?
It decreases.
Will increased hydronium ions increase pH levels?
no it will decrease the pH levels
What will be the effect of pH on retention time?
Retention time decrease with an increase in pH.
Does a base increase or decrease the pH of a solution?
A base will increase the pH of a solution as it will lower the available H+ ions.
Does algae increase pH or decrease pH of water?
Algae draws all available CO2 out of water, causing its pH to increase.
Will NH3 increase decrease or no change in the pH when added to water?
The pH deccrease.
Will NaOH increase decrease or no change in pH when added to water?
increase
When blood CO2 levels increase does the pH increase or decrease?
It decreases.
Will increased hydronium ions increase pH levels?
no it will decrease the pH levels
What will be the effect of pH on retention time?
Retention time decrease with an increase in pH.
What is the effects of an increase in PCO2?
Plasma pH will Decrease
Does a base increase or decrease the pH of a solution?
A base will increase the pH of a solution as it will lower the available H+ ions.
Will H2C2O4 increase decrease or no change in the pH when added to water?
the pH will decrease slightly as oxalic acid is a weak acid.
Do bases tend to decrease the pH of a solution?
No, the bases increase the pH of an aqueous solution.
When citric acid is added will the pH increase or decrease?
When citric acid is added, or any acid for that matter, the pH of a substance will decrease. This is because since acids have a low pH they will decrease the pH of other substances when added to it.
Will the pH increase or decrease if you mix two acids having different pH value?
In general the highest will decrease (more) and the lowest will increase (somewhat), but NEVER linearly average pH values, because it is an exponential unit. ( [H+] = 10-pH )
