pH scale ranges from 0 - 14. It measures the acidity or basicity of a solution. A measurement of 7 is neutral, less than 7 is acidic and a basic is higher than 7.
pH is measured based on the concentration of hydroxide and hydrogen (or hydronium) ions in solution. A solution containing hydrogen (H+ ions) or Hydronium ions (H3O - which is made from the reaction of hydrogen ions with water) indicate a pH lower than 7 or an acidic solution. A solution containing hydroxide ions (OH-) creates a basic solution with a pH greater than 7. It is possible to measure a pH that is greater than the bounds of the scale since the calculation for the scale is based on the negative log of the concentration of hydrogen (or hydronium) ions in the solution.
pH=-log[H3O]
therefore [H3O] = 10^-pH

What is the pH level of Kroger purifed water?
Purified water should have a pH level of 7. The values of 7 is neutral on the pH scale.
Is pH scale range is less than 0?
The pH scale is between 0 and 14 but a pH under 0 is possible for some strong acids.
What makes up PH scale?
The Ph scale doesn't have units it's a model to show where solutions rank based on the -Log of the concentration of H+ ions
What is gasoline pH scale?
Gasoline does not have a pH scale like acids or bases because it is a mixture of hydrocarbons and additives. Gasoline is typically neutral or slightly basic in nature, with a pH close to 7. pH scale is not commonly used to measure gasoline properties.
