    You are absolute right. My bad. That's what happens when I think off the top of my head and don't do the math. Thanks for catching that!

    [EDIT]Hold on a moment...Now that I'm actually working it through, it isn't working out as you showed. Think about diluting Sodium Hydroxide by mixing it with half water to go from a 2 molar solution to a 1 molar solution. It doesn't take on the pH of the neutral distilled water. So hold on a moment while I try to sort this out.[END-EDIT]
