Best Answer

pH is generally taken to refer to aqueous solutions. The concept can be extended to other liquids. Pure dry methanol will dissociate:

CH3OH <-> CH3O- + H+

What is difficult to find is the pKa of the equilibrium.

In aqueous solution methanol has a reported pKA of 15.5. this indicates negligible dissociation- and essentially no effect on pH of water in the case of dilute solutions.
