✓ Answer: B decreases
The pH value is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution. As the concentration of hydronium ions (H3O+) increases, the pH value decreases. A lower pH value indicates a higher acidity of the solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral, below 7 acidic, and above 7 basic.
