The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

As temperature increases, the ionization of water also increases. At higher temperatures, the concentration of \( H^+ \) and \( OH^- \) increases, and the pH of water decreases because pH is inversely proportional to the concentration of hydrogen ions. Thus, the correct answer is option (2) Decrease.
