1 is the lowest 14 is the highest and 7 is the middle

the scale used to measure acid and bases is called a pH scale. the numbers range from 1-14 and go as following- to show an acid= 1-6 nuetral= 7 to show a base= 8-14
u can chek the hardness by pH scale...lolz
pH = 14 is basic pH = 7 is neutral pH - 1 and 2 are acidic; pH = 1 is more acidic than pH = 2 Therefore a solution at pH 1 has higher concentration of H+ than at pH 14
pH is the measure of the amount of hydrogen ions, or how acidic is a solution. a pH meter is a device you could use. Special paper like litmus paper could also be used. when it turns red (or if it is red litmus if it stays red) it' in acid. if the paper turns blue (or blue litmus remains blue), it's in a base. there is universal pH paper that turns a variety of colors depending upon the pH, 0 to 14 is the scale. the higher the number the more basic, the lower the number the more acidic. the number 7 means exactly balanced between acid and base, or neutral.
The highest number on the pH scale is 14. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14.
Zero is the lowest number on the pH scale because it represents the highest concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution, indicating strong acidity. As the pH scale is logarithmic, each whole number change represents a tenfold difference in hydrogen ion concentration. In comparison, a pH of zero signifies the highest concentration of hydrogen ions, making it the most acidic point on the scale.
The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 0 being the most acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being the most basic.
Yes. A base has a pH of greater than 7. An acid has a pH of less than 7.
The pH scale does not have an easily defined lowest number. Often, answers of 1 or 0 are given, but not correct. The pH actually goes below zero, so that negative values are possible. In order to measure a pH there must be some water present, so the theoretical lowest pH value would be slightly less than -1.
Definately
pH scale.
The number 6 is not a natural number on the pH scale if that is what you mean. In fact the number 7 is a natural and neutral number on the pH scale ( on the pH scale number 7 is a green colour.)
A pH of 0 is the most acidic on the pH scale.
Hydrochloric acid (pH 1), Blood (pH 7.4), Ammonia solution (pH 11). The order from lowest to highest pH is: Hydrochloric acid (pH 1) < Blood (pH 7.4) < Ammonia solution (pH 11).
Any smelling on the pH scale.
The range of the pH scale is 0-14.
