Answer:

pH increases

Explanation:

The ammonia, NH₃, reacts with water, H₂O, as follows:

NH₃ + H₂O → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

That means when NH₃ is added to water, some OH⁻ is produced. As [H⁺] is inversely proportional to [OH⁻], the increase of OH⁻ causes the decrease og H⁺. And when H⁺ decreases,

pH increases
