adding a base.
Brady Pfannerstill
pH can increase when more acidic substances are added to a solution or when a base is removed. pH can decrease when more basic substances are added to a solution or when an acid is removed.

∙ 16y agopH doesnt increase anything. But a high pH reading indicates acidity while a low one indicates a base. A pH of about 6.5-7 is neutral (water).

∙ 9y agoThe pH will mainly change as a result of the presence of an acid or a base. When the pH is more than 7 it means it is basic and if it is below 7 it indicates acidity.

∙ 12y agoReaction rate might be dependant on pH, but in most cases reactions -IF depending on pH anyhow- are faster at low pH (high acidity) than at neutral pH.

∙ 10y agopH is based off the number of H+ ions in a solution. An increase in pH shows that there are more free floating H+ while a decrease means there are less H+ ions.

∙ 12y agoWhen the pH of a solution is increasing this solution become more and more basic.

∙ 11y agoIf the base is added in the buffer, the pH of the buffer solution will increase, which can be monitored by pH meter

∙ 6y agoA high pH is associated with a high concentration of hydroxyl ions, -OH.
When citric acid is added, or any acid for that matter, the pH of a substance will decrease. This is because since acids have a low pH they will decrease the pH of other substances when added to it.
Decrease. Increasing the excretion of bicarbonate reduces the buffering capacity in the blood, leading to an increase in acidity and a decrease in pH.
An increase in hydrogen atoms will decrease pH, because the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in the solution will increase, making it more acidic.
H2C2O4, also known as oxalic acid, will decrease the pH when added to water. This is because oxalic acid is a weak acid that will dissociate in water to release hydrogen ions, leading to an increase in H+ concentration and a decrease in pH.
An increase in ventilation leads to a decrease in blood carbon dioxide levels, shifting the pH towards alkalinity (higher pH). This is because carbon dioxide acts as an acid in the blood, so decreasing it causes the blood to become more alkaline.
Algae draws all available CO2 out of water, causing its pH to increase.

An example of a solute that dissociates to release hydrogen ions and causes a decrease in pH is an acid. Acids release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, leading to an increase in the concentration of H+ ions in the solution and a decrease in pH. Examples of acids include hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4).

In general the highest will decrease (more) and the lowest will increase (somewhat), but NEVER linearly average pH values, because it is an exponential unit. ( [H+] = 10-pH )
