A normal or neutral pH level is 7. Caustic soda is highly basic with a pH of between 13.5 and 15. Caustic soda is a dangerous base and should be handled carefully.

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.

What is the pH of caustic soda?

Caustic soda, scientifically known as sodium hydroxide, does not have a given pH. pH depends on both the strength of an acid or base and its concentration, meaning how much of it is dissolved in a given volume of water. Since sodium hydroxide is a strong base the pH of a solution of it can be calculated fairly easily. On a calculator the pH=14 + log(M), where M is the molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide.
