State

The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a solution is, based on hydrogen ion concentration, running 0 to 14 with 7 neutral.

Show

Pure water sits at pH 7; a solution with more free hydrogen ions than pure water reads below 7.

Watch for

Each whole step on the pH scale represents a tenfold change in hydrogen ion concentration, not a fixed, even step.
