pH stands for " power of hydrogen" when the water breaks (H2O) you get H+ ( also H3O+) and OH-

so pH is the power of H+

You can also calculate pH with this formula :

pH = - log10 x [H3O+] [H3O+] - this is the number of thes kations

pH rate is from 0 to 14 where 7 is neutral (water), <7 is acid and >7 is base

The pH range of acid is between 1 to 6. The lower the pH, more is the acidic nature of substance.
