Answer 1

Acidity/alkalinity of the soil.

Explanation:

• The term pH is characterized as a scale that is used to measure whether a solution is acidic, base, or neutral. While Alkalinity is described as the state of being alkaline(a caustic base).
• If soil is diffused in water to check its nature, it would be called 'acidity/alkalinity' of the soil instead of pH.
• This is primarily because pH is more likely associated with deducing the absolute value of a liquid solution in terms of its nature being acidic or basic instead of a solid substance like 'soil.'
