The premise of this question is incorrect. When NaOH is added to water the hydroxide concentration increases. NaOH is a base. If a substance decreases hydroxide concentration it would be an acid.

No. A base decreases the amount of hydronium, and increases the amount of hydroxide.

A hydroxide ion.

the excess hydronium reacts with hydroxide in water to form more water and reduce the amount of hydroxide present.

Are hydronium ions contributed to a solution by a base or acid?

Acids have more hydronium than hydroxide. Bases are the reverse of that.

What happens if you mix distilled water and sodium hydroxide?

Sodium hydroxide simply becomes ionized in water, no reaction will occur. And the concentration of NaOH will be reduced, if enough water is added.


Which ion increases in concentration when a strong base is added to water?

As a general rule of thumb, for acid solutions [H+] > [OH-], for basic solutions [H+] < [OH-], and for neutral solutions or for pure water [H+] = [OH-] This is the answer but can someone explain it to me?


How do I explain this hypothesis 'The higher the amount of calcium hydroxide added the more the pH will increase'?

Calcium hydroxide has a low solubility in water yet if the concentration of hydroxyl ions increase the pH increase.
