When the acidic solution is added to the basic solution what happens to the pH does it increase decrease or stays the same?
It depends on the original pH of both solutions.
What would happen OH-ions were added to a very basic solution?
It would become more basic.
As an acidic solution is added to a basic solution the pH of the basic solution decreases?
Yes, from above 7 to below 7
An unknown substance is added to a solution and the pH increases The substance is best described as what?
The unknown substance would have to be a basic solution. At least more basic than the initial solution. The pH scale ranges from 0,Most acidic, to 14, Most Basic. If the pH of your solution increases when the unknown substance is added, then it would lead you to believe that the added substance is of a basic nature.
How do the concentrations of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion determine whether a solution is acidic basic or neutral.?
acids are substances that release their hydrogen ion(s) while bases grab hydrogen ions to themselves. SO, adding acids will increase the H+ concentration while adding bases will decrease the H+ concetration of the solution. This would be considered a direct effect.

What effect does the temperature have on solution rate?
acidic buffers increase pH as temperature increases, basic buffers decrease pH as temperature increases I am still searching for the reason.
What happens When acid is added to a solution of pH 7?
Your stomach fluid would be neutral (neither acidic nor basic) and you would have extreme difficulty in digesting food.
What are the two basic uses for a transformer?
To increase or decrease electrical voltage- step up or step down.
When each what is added to water is the resulting solution acidic basic or neutral?
When each of the following is added to water, is the resulting solution acidic, basic, or neutral? a) HClO, b) NaCl, c) HCN, d) MgO, e) CH3OH
What happens to the pH of An aqueous solution if a few drops of acid are added to it?
If the solution is not basic then the pH will fall below 7
What indicator has no color at all?
phenolphthalien when added to an acidic solution has a colourless indicator. but shows pink colour for basic solution.
