Thats a silly question, it cant change if you dilute it, if you dilute it it should stay to an easy pH of 7 or it could change to a weak acid/base. Its not that hard.

How does the pH change when the solution of acids is diluted with water?

It gets closer to 7


How many times a solution of pH equals 3 be diluted to get a solution of pH equals 6?

The solution must be diluted 1000 times to get from a pH of 3 to a pH of 6.


How many times a solution of pH equals 2 be diluted to get a solution of pH equals 5?

When diluted 10 times pH is raised by 1 unit in a acid.So you have to dilute 1000 times.


What happens to the pH when sodium hydroxide is diluted?

The pH becomes lower, appoaching a level of 7 if the solution is diluted sufficiently to become almost neutral.


WHY pH increases of strong acid when diluted?

When the acid is is diluted; its pH has a chance increase above seven and nake the sample;solution; Etc acidic.


What happens to the pH of hydrochloric acid when it is diluted?

The pH of basic solutions will drop (become less basic) as the solution is diluted. However, if the solution contains a buffer, the pH will remain nearly constant upon dilution.


How does the pH of a concenterated acid change when it is diluted?

pH is actually a measure of hydrogen ion concentration, similar to how molarity is a measure of the concentration of other solutions. The pH of the acid will become more neutral, in this case higher if it's being diluted with water.


How do you adjust pH of ammonium acetate solution to?

the pH of ammonium acetate buffer can be adjusted with glacial acetic acid (concentrate or diluted )


How does diluting an acidic or basic solution affect the pH of the solution?

It depends on the pH of the dilutant. if the dilution substance is base the acidic solution will become less acidic moving toward neutral pH, the more it is diluted the less acidic it will become. A base solution will remain base or about 7 pH


If you took a solution of pH 5 and diluted it with water the pH number would be?

Diluting with water will make this solution more neutral, meaning it will slowly increase to 7, which is the pH value of pure water used for this dilution.


What will happen to the pH of H2O if MgOH is dissolved in it?

The pH will go higher as MgOH (alkali) has a pH above 7. Also, the resulting solution will be more diluted. Hope this helps.


Describe a solution that contains a buffer?

Acetic acid is added to the solution, but the pH of the solution does not change. Sodium hydroxide, a base, is added to the solution, but the pH of the solution does not change.
