The pH level of a snake's poison indicates the concentration level of the poison. The term pH stands for 'potential of hydrogen'. This is the measure of how acidic or alkaline a substance is. Acids have pH values that are under 7 and alkalies have pH values over 7. If a substance has a pH value of 7, it is neutral — neither acidic nor alkaline.
so depending on the snake the ph of the poison changes.
