Since the pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, a change in one pH unit signifies a tenfold modification in activity. In this case, coffee has a pH of 5, meaning that when compared to the pH of 10 in milk of magnesia, coffee is 100,000 (10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10) times more acidic than milk of magnesia.

Black coffee has a pH of 5 and milk magnesia has a pH of 10 Is coffee twice as acididc as milk of magnesia?

Coffee is acidic. Milk of magnesia is basic. A neutral pH is 7. pH is logarithmic, so a pH of 5 is 10 times more acid than a pH of 6. since coffee is 2 less than 7 and milk of magnesia is 3 more than 7 it takes 1 part milk of magnesia to 10 parts coffee to neutralize each other.
