To Compare: The pH of a dilute solution of HCl with the pH of a concentrated solution of the same acid.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction: Bases are compounds that gives
HCl is a strong acid so it dissociates completely in an aqueous solution.
The pH of a solution is a measure of the concentration of
The concentration of asolution is related to the amount of acid dissolved in the solution.
In a dilute HCl solution, the amount of HCl acid in the solution is less compared to the amount of water. Hence, the concentration of
Hence, a dilute solution of HCl is less acidic than the concentrated solution of the same acid.
Conclusion:The pH of a dilute solution of HCl is greater than the pH of a concentrated solution of the same acid.
