the pH decreases since dilution affects the cocentration of H+ found ... thus the pH

so the more the water is , the less the concentration of H+ is for the same amount of H+

Will pH of the acid change after the dilution?

can you be more specific? "the" acid? pH of buffered solutions generally will not change upon dilution, following the henderson-hasselbach. however, pH of strong acids will change, following the standard equation: pH = -log[H+] yerp


Is it true that a ten-fold dilution of a strong acidic solution will decrease the pH by 1?

No, it is false. A ten-fold dilution of an acid will INCREASE the pH by 1 unit. Remember pH is 0-14 where 0 is most acidic. Diluting ten-fold on a logarithmic scale will increase the pH.Conversely, a ten-fold dilution of an alkali/base will increase the pH by 1 unit.


Is pH12 a strong acid?

No, pH 12 indicates a strong base, not a strong acid. A strong acid would have a pH value below 7.


What is the pH score for a strong acid and a strong base?

A strong acid will have a low pH and a strong base will have a high pH.


What should be pH -value to be strong acid?

The pH will depend on the concentration of the acid, not on whether it is strong or weak.


What is pH number of strong acid?

A number less than a pH of 4 indicates a strong acid.


What should be pH value to be strong acid?

The pH will depend on the concentration of the acid, not on whether it is strong or weak.


What value on the pH scale represents a strong acid a strong base and a neutral substance?

Strong acid = 1 pH ( or lower ) Strong base = 14 pH ( or higher ) Neutral solution = 7 pH


What is the pH difference between a strong acid and a weak acid n the pH scale?

Usually a strong acid will produce a lower pH, but not always. pH is not a measure of the strength of an acid (or base) but the acidity of a solution, which is dependent on both the strength of the acid or base and its concentration in the solution.


How does pH of a strong acid compare with the pH of a weak acid?

i think a strong acid ionizes completely in water while a weak acid ionizes partiallly in water therefore the pH of a strong acid is greater than that of a weak acid The first part of your answer was correct, but the second was reversed. The pH of a strong acid is lower than the pH of a weak acid.


If you choose to change the pH of a solution very slightly should you add a strong acid or weak acid?

You should add a weak acid to change the pH of a solution very slightly. Weak acids will have a less dramatic effect on the pH compared to strong acids, allowing for more precise control over the pH adjustment.


Would a strong acid have a lower pH level than a weak acid?

yes a strong acid would have a lower ph level
