A is an aqueous acid; B is an aqueous base. They are diluted separately, then
A.pH of A increases and pH of B decreases✓ Correct
B.pH of A increases and pH of B decreases till pH in
C.pH of A and B increase
D.pH of B and A decrease
Explanation
10 pH = log H As both the solution are diluted, in solution A H decreases. Therefore, pH increases. In solution B OH decreases. pOH increases. pH decreases.
