How does the process of dilution affect the concentration of ions in a solution?
1
Increases the concentration of ions
2
Decreases the concentration of ions
3
Does not affect the concentration of ions
4
Converts ions into molecules
Answer and Solution
Answer
B. Decreases the concentration of ions
Solution:
Dilution of a solution reduces the concentration of ions present in the solution. As more solvent is added, the ions become more spread out, resulting in a decrease in ion concentration.
