Correct answer: A. decrease
- A. decrease
- B. gradually decreases then increase
- C. increase
- D. remain same
Explanation
When a weak acid is diluted with water, the concentration of hydrogen ions [𝐻+] will decrease. This is because dilution reduces the overall concentration of all species in the solution, including the hydrogen ions produced by the dissociation of the weak acid.
