A high pH signifies a base. Sodas are acids and would have a low pH.

Is the pH of flat soda pop lower than the pH of regular soda?
Short answer: NO. The pH of flat soda should be HIGHER than fresh/ regular soda. A LOW pH means HIGH acid (pH 2) and LOW base--while HIGH pH (e.g. pH 11) is LOW acid and HIGH base. Carbonic acid (H2CO3) turns into carbon dioxide (CO2) (a clear, odorless gas) and water (H20) when soda bubbles or fizzes---it bubbles up from the pop/ soda and "boils" into the air. Boiling simply means the transition from liquid to gas. It doesn't have to mean that the liquid is hot. Since the reaction turns an acid into neutral, non-acidic compounds then acid is reduced. With less acid the pH increases. So "the pH of flat soda pop is HIGHER than the pH of regular soda."
What is the pH for and acid?
The pH of an acid is higher than 7.
How would the pH of a cleaner that contains caustic soda best be described?
A cleaner containing caustic soda would be described as basic, and its pH would be low, like 2 or so. Caustic soda is a pretty active (strong) base. Compare this to the pH of a neutral substance, which is 7, or an acid which is greater than 7, and the higher it is, the stronger the acid.
Out of ammonia battery acid isopropyl alcohol and water which has a higher pH?
Battery acid has the higher pH.
On the pH scale what is the pH of an acid?
0 - 6.9 The lower the pH number the higher the concentration of hydronium ions and higher the strength of acid
An acid has a pH?
Yes an acid has a pH, it is less than 7, and a base has a pH greater than 7. For example a lime has a pH of 2.3 and baking soda has a pH of 8.2.
Does muredic acid raise or lower pH in a pool?
Acid lowers the PH number. You want the pH to be between 7.0 and 7.4. To raise the ph you can use baking soda.
How do you change pool pH with baking soda?
You use acid & or Chlorine.
What has a pH of 2.0 besides stomach acid?
sprite soda pop
What has a greater concentration of acid pH 5 or pH 3?
pH 3 the lower down the scale the high the the concentration of acid the higher up the higher concentration of alkali's.
Is pH of a basic solution higher or lower than pH of a acid solution?
A basic pH is higher than an acidic or neutral pH.
What does adding caustic soda to water raise or lower the pH?
I'm a chemist waste water operator and we use caustic soda to raise pH levels and sulfuric acid to lower pH levels
