Adding water keeps the number of moles of solute constant while total volume increases, so concentration decreases.
HCl approaches 7 from below; NaOH approaches 7 from above. The pH meter gives numbers, the indicator only gives a range.
Do not interpolate pH from volume. Dilution alone does not turn an acid into a base or vice versa.

H⁺ and OH⁻ react in a 1:1 molar ratio; other ions stay in solution. The display is relative to support observation and does not show actual ion counts.

500 mL remaining. Press Pour repeatedly or use Space/Enter.
Spacing is for readability; pH values remain logarithmic.
A one-unit pH difference corresponds to about ten times in [H⁺] within the model range.
State: —
Values are computed with the ideal solution model at 25°C.
No solution yet for the indicator to reflect a pH range.
