1.	What will be the nature of acid if acid is diluted with water ?
Answer» When an acidic solution is diluted with water the concentration of H + ions decreases and the pH of the solution increases towards 7. To make the pH change by 1, a tenfold dilution is required (eg adding 9 cm 3 of water to 1 cm 3 acid). The acid is becoming less acidic.
