Upon passing 0.01 mole HCl gas through 200 ml of a 0.05 mole formic acidic solution, determine the change in pH of the solution and the resulting solution.
A. The pH of the solution decreases, and the resulting solution is more acidic.
B. The pH of the solution increases, and the resulting solution is more basic.
C. The pH of the solution remains unchanged, and the resulting solution is neutral.
D. The pH of the solution increases, and the resulting solution is more acidic.
