When concentrated sulfuric acid, H2SO4(l), is added to water it will form a solution containing hydrogen ions and hydrogen sulfate ions. H2SO4 is a strong acid, but only for the first H+. The remaining HSO4^- is a weak acid. Since it forms an acidic solution, it will change blue litmus to red.

Answer:

The new solution is a homogeneous mixture and will have a lower pH i.e. more acidic.

Explanation:

The solution is different is different in 2 ways:

1) The original water is a pure solution. Water is a polar solvent and so is H2SO4. When the later is added to water it is completely dispersed and results in a solution which is essentially a homogenous mixture of two liquids.

2) Secondly the pH of water is neutral i.e.7. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is a strong acid which dissociates completely to release H+ ions in solution. This increases the concentration of H+ ions. Since pH = -log[H+], the pH will decrease making the solution more acidic.

The answer is the last option. Electronegativity is the measure of the attraction that an atom has for electrons involved in chemical bonds.  It relates to covalent bonds where electrons are shared. The Pauling scale is the most used.
