Question

What happens to the hydrogen ion (H+) concentration as an aqueous

solution becomes more acidic? *
A)decreases
B)increases
C)remains constant
D)cannot be determined

Answer 1

B) increases

Explanation: As the level of hydroxide ions increases the more basic, or alkaline, the solution becomes. Thus, as the hydrogen ion concentration increases hydroxide ion concentration falls

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be determined by measuring the Ph. D is incorrect.

C: is wrong because if you are making something acidic, you are increasing the H+

B: is the correct answer.

A: pH decreases. H+ increases which makes the Ph decrease. It is an oddity of the formula that makes this happen.
