pH itself is not measured in any units, but the units of concentration for the amount free hydrogen ions is in moles per liter of solution. Mol/liter is sometimes just represented by an M, so 10^-3 mol/L looks like 10^-3 M.

Why is a pH scale called a pH scale?

The pH scale is a scale to express the acidity of aqueous solutions (i.e. anything dissolved in water). The scale is divided in equi-distantial units with decimals, comparable with temperature or pressure scales. Commonly it goes from 0 - 14, with 7 being neutral. pH stands for parts of hydrogen. It is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration.

What is the significance of pH units of measure in determining the acidity or alkalinity of a solution?

The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a solution is. A pH below 7 is acidic, while a pH above 7 is basic. The significance of pH units is that they provide a quantitative way to determine the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, helping to understand its chemical properties and potential effects on living organisms.
