Answer:
Explanation:
ph stands for "power of hydrogen", it is the amount of hydrogen ions present in a solution which determines its acidity or alkalinity, mathematically it is equal to the negative decimal logarithm of the hydrogen ion activity in a solution. The scale ranges from 0 - 14, 7 being neutral below it is acidity and above it is alkalinity of a solution.
