A pH of 7 is considered neutral.
The pH scale measures the acidity or alkalinity of a substance. It ranges from 0 to 14, where:
- 0-6.9: Indicates acidity
- 7: Indicates neutrality
- 7.1-14: Indicates alkalinity (or basicity)
Therefore, a substance with a pH of 7 is neither acidic nor alkaline; it is neutral. Pure water, for example, has a pH of approximately 7.
