As H goes up (becomes more acidic), the pH level goes down. Acids have a pH below 7 whereas bases - substances that readily bond with H+ ions a.k.a. alkaline substances, have a pH greater than 7

∙ 11y agoYes. Ph is nothing but measuring the conc. of H+ ions.
So if more H+ ions are added to a solution then yes pH should increase.
If the solution has lots of OH- ions like a peroxide then increasin the conc. will decrease ph and make the solution more ALKALINE.
In short more OH- makes thinks more Alkaline, H+ ions makes things Acidic.

How does the concentration of OH- ions change if its pH changes from 8 to 13?
As pH increases H+ ions concentration decreases means OH- ions concentration increases . If pH increases from 8 to 13 , OH- ions concentration increases.
Why the acidic character increases with the decrease in pH?
The acidic character increases with decrease in pH because the pH and acidity are both dependent on the hydrogen ion concentration, with pH being the negative log of the hydrogen concentration. So, at the concentration of H+ increases, the negative log of the H+ concentration decreases.
If pH increases does a group become more or less protonated?
If pH increases, then the solution is less protonated. The pH of a solution is defined as -log[H+], so when the concentration of hydrogen ions increases, the pH decreases.
What happens to concentration of the hydronium ions as the pH decreases?
As the PH value decreases the acidity increases .When the PH value is 7 it is neutral. More than 7 it shifts to alkaline(basic) nature. Less than seven it will be acidic.
What causes the pH of a solution to raise?
An increase in the concentration of OH- ions.
As hydroxide ion concentration increases the Ph will increase or decrase?
As hydroxide concentration increases pH increases
What are rates of reaction influenced by?
Temperature (rate increases with temp increase) Pressure (rate again increases with press increase) Concentration (rate increases with concentration increase) Particle size (rate increases with smaller particles) Catalyst increases rate.
How does the concentration of OH- ions change if its pH changes from 8 to 13?
As pH increases H+ ions concentration decreases means OH- ions concentration increases . If pH increases from 8 to 13 , OH- ions concentration increases.
How does an increase in the cocentration of H plus affect the number on the pH scale?
As the concentration of H+ increases, the value of pH decreases simultaneously.
How many times does the concentration of H plus increase or decrease when pH drops from 7 to 5?
When the pH drops from 7 to 5 the H plus concentration increases by 100 times. ie:for every drop back of pH by 1 unit the H plus concentration increases by 10 times.
How is a change in hydrogen ion concentration reflected in the pH?
pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration; so an increase in hydrogen ion concentration give a reduction in pH. A reduction in hydrogen ion concentration causes an increase in pH.
What is A measurement system used to indicate the concentration of Hydrogen ions in solution?
the pH scale. as the pH of the solution decreases (below 7), the concentration of H+ ions increases. as the pH of the solution increases (above 7), the concentration of H+ ions decreases. (if the pH is 7, the solution is neutral).
Why the acidic character increases with the decrease in pH?
The acidic character increases with decrease in pH because the pH and acidity are both dependent on the hydrogen ion concentration, with pH being the negative log of the hydrogen concentration. So, at the concentration of H+ increases, the negative log of the H+ concentration decreases.
What can cause the pH of a solution to increase?
Adding a base the pH increases.
If pH increases does a group become more or less protonated?
If pH increases, then the solution is less protonated. The pH of a solution is defined as -log[H+], so when the concentration of hydrogen ions increases, the pH decreases.
What happens to concentration of the hydronium ions as the pH decreases?
As the PH value decreases the acidity increases .When the PH value is 7 it is neutral. More than 7 it shifts to alkaline(basic) nature. Less than seven it will be acidic.
What happens to the hydrogen ion concentration as you decrease the pH?
Hydrogen ion concentration increases.
