Neglecting any effects caused by volume changes, what would you expect about the ionic strength of the solution when NaOH is added to a dilute solution of magnesium chloride (as a result magnesium hydroxide forms)?   Select one:   a.) The concept of ionic strength is not applicable in this situation.     b.) The ionic strength of the resulting solution remain essentially unchanged.     c.) The ionic strength of the resulting solution should increase.     d.) The ionic strength of the resulting solution should decrease.
