Answer:

Increasing the H+/H3O+ will decrease the pH, while increasing the OH- ions will increase the pH

Step-by-step explanation:

so pH=-log(H), which means that the smaller H gets to 0, the more the pH rises. The larger the H+ gets, the smaller the pH
if H is 1, then pH is 0
if H is 0.1, then pH is 1
if H is 0.01, then pH is 2
and so on
if H is 0.00000000000001, then the pH is 14
When OH goes up, H goes down, so
if OH is 0.00000000000001, then the ph is 0
if OH is 0.0000000000001, then the pH is 1
and so on
If the OH is 1, then the pH is 14
