Assertion (A): If a solution with `pH = 2` is diluted to double the volume, the `pH` of the solution will fall to `1`.
Reason (R) : `pH` is inversely proportional to the volume of the solution.

Options

A. If both (A) and (R) are correc, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
B. If both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
C. If (A) is correct, but (R) is incorrect.
D. If both (A) and (R) are incorrect.

Explanation

`(A) [H^(o+)] = (10^(-2))/(2) pH = 2.3 "not pJ" = 1`.
`(R)` is wrong.
