pH measures the acidity or basicity of a solution from "summary" of Chemistry by Russell Kuhtz

When we talk about pH, we are referring to a measurement that tells us how acidic or basic a solution is. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 0 being the most acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being the most basic. This scale is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. Acids are substances that release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, while bases are substances that release hydroxide ions. The pH of a solution is determined by the balance between these two types of ions. If a solution has a higher concentration of hydrogen ions, it will be more acidic and have a lower pH value. Conversely, if a solution has a higher concentration of hydroxide ions, it will be more basic and have a higher...
