yes, any water.
To make a solution more concentrated, you can increase the amount of solute (what is being dissolved) in the solvent (what is doing the dissolving) while keeping the volume of the solution constant. This will increase the ratio of solute to solvent, making the solution more concentrated.
It would become more basic.
Yes, the amount of a solution can affect the pH if the solution is a dilute acid or base. Adding more of a dilute acid will increase the concentration of H+ ions and decrease the pH, while adding more of a dilute base will increase the concentration of OH- ions and increase the pH.
I presume from category that the question ask about the heat of dissolution. Assume the solvent and solution is at thermal equilibrium. Adding more solvent would yield change in interaction for non ideal solution and thus it could yield increase or decrease of temperature depend on the infinite heat of solution of the solute that we interested in. Adding more solvent would not yield temperature change for ideal solution.
because distilled water does not have any dissolved salts in it
You would wan to dilute the trisodium citrate in distilled water to create a 1% solution. So if you wanted 100mL of solution, you would mix 1mL of trisodium citrate with 99mL of distilled sterile water.
A solution with a pH lower than that of distilled water would be acidic. This could be achieved by adding an acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid to water. Acidic solutions have a pH below 7, with the lower the pH, the more acidic the solution will be.

no
increase the pH of the solution, making it more basic. This is because bases release hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water, which can react with H+ ions in the solution, thereby raising the pH.
distilled water does not contain ions, without ions it can not produce and electrical charge. In other words DISTILLED WATER does not conduct electricity.
Yes, distilled water would test negative for starch. Starch can only be detected through specific chemical tests that involve reagents like iodine solution, which would not react with distilled water.
