What happens to the pH of an acid when an acid is added?
when acid is added to a substance in the pH, the substance rises in a pressurized state
How should the pH of a material in the Acidic beaker compare to that in the Basic beaker before any acid or base is added?
They would both contain the same neutral pH of pure water = pH of 7.0; neither acidic nor basic.
What happens to pH when acid is added to water?
It won't have neutralised the acid but it will be weaker because it is less concentrated
What happens to pH of water when hydrochloric acid is added to water?
the water will get more acidic. the PH will decrease meaning the pH is acidic
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 is the pH of pure water in the beaker before the acid is added?
7

When citric acid is added will the pH increase or decrease?
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.
How does pH change when an acid is added to a base?
The pH lowers from around 14 to a lower number as acid is added.
What happens to the buffer solution pH 7 when acid is added?
When acid is added to a buffer solution at pH 7, the pH of the buffer solution will decrease. However, due to the presence of a conjugate base in the buffer solution, the buffer will resist the change in pH and try to maintain its original pH value. This is because the conjugate base will react with the acid and prevent a significant decrease in pH.
What happens to pH value when alkali is added to an acid?
If you are asking about acid then the pH value will go from 7- to 7+.... If you are asking about the alkali the pH value will go from 7+ to 7-....
Will the pH change when an alkali is added to an acid?
Yes. The pH will increase.
If an acid is added to water the PH will?
decrease.
