A weak acid is added to a concentrated solution of hydrochloric acid. Does the solution become more or less acidic?

A) More acidic, since there are more hydronium ions being added to the solution.
B) Less acidic, since the solution becomes more dilute with a less concentrated solution of hydronium ions being added to the solution.
C) No change in acidity, since the concentration of the hydrochloric acid is too high to be changed by the weak solution.
D) Less acidic since the concentration of hydroxide ions will increase.
