Diluting sulfuric acid decreases the hydrogen ion concentration because the concentration of sulfuric acid molecules in the solution decreases. As a result, the overall hydrogen ion concentration decreases in the diluted solution.
Diluting a strong acid will generally have little effect on its pH. This is because strong acids completely dissociate in water to give H+ ions, so adding more water will not change the concentration of H+ ions significantly. Therefore, the pH of a strong acid solution remains relatively constant upon dilution.
Adding hydrochloric acid (HCl) to water increases the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution. This is because HCl dissociates in water to form H+ ions and Cl- ions, thereby increasing the hydrogen ion concentration.
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.
The pH of the weak acids is lower than 7 (neutral) but higher than strong acids (which can be around 1). This is because pH is a measure of hydrogen ion concentration and weak acids only partially dissociate. It is a logarithmic scale, so pH=-log[H]+ so a larger concentration of hydrogen means a lower pH and a smaller concentration, a higher pH. Thus, when water is added to a weak acid, the concentration of hydrogen ions will decrease and the pH will become greater.
No. A pH of 10 is basic, which means, by definition, that it has more hydroxide ions than hydronium* ions. *Acids and bases are not measured with hydrogen atoms but the effect is the same.
The percent ionization of a weak electrolyte upon dilution is increased. This is in accordance with Le Chatelier's principle. Dilution causes the reaction to shift in the direction of the larger number of particles to counter the effect of the decreasing concentration.
dilution will reduce the viscosity The effect of dilution on viscosity of oil is that it will decrease.

In a base, the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) decreases as they accept protons to form hydroxide ions (OH-). This leads to an increase in the concentration of hydroxide ions, resulting in a higher pH and a more basic solution.

The student's experiment in the Prelab Activity is designed to test the effect of changing the concentration of hydrogen peroxide on the rate of enzyme activity in the enzyme catalase. This involves manipulating the independent variable (concentration of hydrogen peroxide) to observe its impact on the dependent variable (rate of enzyme activity).
