On diluting a buffer solution, its pH :

A

is increased

B

is decreased

C

remains constant

D

will change which be predicted unless dissociation of its weak acid (or base )is provided.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`pH =pK_a +log ""([S])/([A])`
on dilution. [S] and [A] decrease by same factor
