What effect does the concentration of` H^(+)(aq)` ions have on the nature of the solution?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Concentration of `H^(+)` (aq) can have a varied effect on the nature of the solution. With an increase in `H^(+)` ion concentration, the solution becomes more acidic, while a decrease of `H^(+)` ion causes an increase in the basicity of the solution.
