Yes. Ph is a measurement of the concentration of the hydronium ion [H+]. If you add more water you change the concentration.

Does adding water to a base make the pH higher or lower?

Adding water to a base will not change the pH of the solution, but it will dilute the base concentration. If you add water to a basic solution, the pH will remain the same, but the concentration of the base will decrease.


Does adding salt to fresh water in and of itself change the pH of the water?

The pH is unchanged.


Does adding salt to water change its pH level to become more alkaline?

No, adding salt to water does not change its pH level to become more alkaline. Salt does not directly affect the pH level of water.


How do you change the pH to become more basic?

Adding a base to the solution.


Does the pH of ethanol change if water is added?

Yes, adding water to ethanol will change its pH. Ethanol is a neutral compound with a pH of around 7. However, adding water will dilute the ethanol, potentially changing its pH depending on the amount of water added and the initial concentration of the ethanol solution.


Does adding sea salt to water change its pH level to become more alkaline?

No, adding sea salt to water does not change its pH level to become more alkaline. Sea salt is a neutral substance and does not significantly affect the pH of water.


Does adding salt to freshwater aquariums change the Ph level of the water?

No


Does adding water change the pH of an acid?

Yes it does. pH is defined as the -log of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution, or -log[H+]. As you add water to an acid, you are diluting it, thus lowering the concentration of H+. Putting a lower value in for [H+] in the equation -log[H+] will give you a great value than you originally had. This means the pH has increased, making the solution more basic.


Which causes the pH of a solution of a solution to increase?

Adding a base


How do you change the pH of a water solution?

Add an acid or a base to it.


What causes the pH of solution to increase?

Adding a base will make the pH go up (increasing of OH- ions concentration).


If a base is added to an acidic solution what happens to the ph?

Adding base will increase pH-level
