Most natural lake waters range from PH=6 to 9
the natural acidity of aged brandy, pH range about 4.2-4.4 source: www.ajevonline.org/cgi/reprint/28/3/152.pdf
The pH of tap water varies a great deal from town to town and sometimes from one season to another. Your city water department can give you a general idea of your tap water's pH, but it would be better to buy a wide-range pH test kit and test it yourself.
7-14 is the range of base in a pH scale
pH of water is 7.0. pH of urine is 6.5-8.0. pH of blood is 7.4. pH of gastric juice is 1. pH of milk is 6.7.

Water
pH is based on the ionic product of the water. At ionic product of water reaches to 100, then the pH of the solution is 14.
"Dirty" does not define any particular pH range for water. Water can be contaminated by acids, alkalis or neutral materials.
Pure water has a natural Ph due to the rate of dissociation to H+ and OH- is equal to rate of association to form H2O. Pure water has no free ions.
The specific gravity [relative to water] is 0.91
6.5 to 8.5 is right answer
When setting up an aquarium we must allways try and simulate the fish's natural environment as best as possible. If a fish is found in water with a PH range of 6.0 - 7.0 that will be the range we would try and keep with-in an aquarium. As for the question "Why should the pH for tropical fish be 7" that is a bit of a trick question as different tropical fish have different PH ranges. www.justaddwateraquariums.com.au
They maintain (or at least come close to maintaining) a CONSTANT pH. That is pH staying close to its original value. Buffers are most needed at conditions ranging from weakly acidic to neutral and weakly basic, because most biochemical reactions are in that range and there is almost no buffering power in natural water with the pH range 4 till 10.
its neutral so the number would be 7
Can be anything, there's no strong link between pH and temperature. -------------- When the temperature is increasing the pH of water is decreasing and the ionic product (Kw) is increasing; at 50 0C the pH of pure water is 6,43. See the link below for the theory and for a table of pH.
