Why do we write as pH instead of Ph?

The letters stand for "potential Hydrogen". The word "potential" isn't capitalized normally, but "Hydrogen", being the name of an element, is.

Do you write pH7 or pH 7?

The correct notation is "pH 7," with a space between "pH" and the number. This format clearly indicates the pH level, which is a measure of acidity or alkalinity. Using "pH7" is less common and may be considered less clear.

How you can test the pH of solution?

You can test the pH of a solution using pH strips, pH meters, or pH indicator solutions. With pH strips, you simply dip the strip into the solution and compare the color change to a pH color chart. pH meters provide a digital pH value by immersing the electrode into the solution. pH indicator solutions change color based on the pH of the solution, allowing for a visual estimation of pH.
