There is lot of importance of pH in everyday life of an human being as well as plants :
The value of the pH for the human body is in the range of 7 to 7.8. This range shows the importance of pH in everyday life which makes an important statement about the kind of environment we would like to be in.
The pH of the rain water could also be measured and it is experimentally found that most of the rainfall for the first 10 -15 minutes is acidic in nature. If the value of the pH is found to be less than the value 5.6 then the rain is thought to be acidic. Acidic rains is highly damaging in nature.
The acidic rain effect is evident for architectural marvel of the world the Taj Mahal. The main cause of this is the Mathura Oil refinery and many of the factories that has come up in the vicinity of Taj.The air in the surrounding areas are polluted and are filled with gaseous particles responsible for such type of rain. This type of rain could cause damage to the crops as well and change the pH of crop field soil profile.
Even in our digestive system, particularly the stomach, contains digestive juices or acids that help in the process of digestion and since the process of digestion is very important one the pH plays a big role in maintaining the neutral atmosphere of the stomach.
During this process of digestion a lot of acids are also secreted in the stomach. These acids if not neurtralised on time could damage the inner linings of the stomach and food pipe as well.
To neutralize the acids that are produced, some bases needs to be added. These bases are taken externally in the form of tablets and syrups which are basically nothing but diluted form alkaline suspension like milk of magnesia.
So, the importance of pH in everyday life is immense. The presence of pH in mouth is also important. This pH value is roughly around 5.5. Once the food is taken in and pushed through food pipe there are still some particles of food remaining in the mouth cavity.
The bacteria present in the mouth starts breaking down these food particles and while doing so produce acids which usually damage the teeth or trigger the teeth decay teeth.The human teeth are made up of a material that is the hardest in nature, and is not corroded by any substance. But when these teeth are exposed to the acids generated by the bacteria they are prone to tooth decay.
This can be prevented if one is a bit careful. Wash and rinse mouth thoroughly after taking food. Mouth wash could also be used. The teeth can be brushed twice a day and this helps a lot in preventing the tooth decay. In order to neutralise the effect of mouth cavity acid build up the tooth pastes are found to be basic in nature.

pH means percent of hydrogen
And we have red litmus and blue litmus papers right when they change their color we can observe whether it is a acid or a base and we have neutral too
For example:when we dip blue or red litmus in water it shows neutral
I hope this answer helps you....
