Answer:


B\text{ : decreases}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know what happens to a solution that becomes more acidic

A lesser ph (1-7) indicates acidity with the acidity being higher as the number becomes smaller

What this means is that a solution with a pH of 3 is more acidic than a solution with a pH of 5

Thus, when the acidity increases, it is expected that the pH of the solution decreases (it becomes smaller in number)
