Li+ has maximum degree of hydration and for this reason lithium salts are mostly hydrated


Is it true that a ten-fold dilution of a strong acidic solution will decrease the pH by 1?

No, it is false. A ten-fold dilution of an acid will INCREASE the pH by 1 unit. Remember pH is 0-14 where 0 is most acidic. Diluting ten-fold on a logarithmic scale will increase the pH.Conversely, a ten-fold dilution of an alkali/base will increase the pH by 1 unit.
