While the pH is a useful descriptor of a chemical property, it is a poor descriptor of chemical hazard. Two liquids with the same pH, say 4.6, can have very different "levels" of hazard. Before the amount of hazard can be assessed, the actual chemical, or at least the chemical family, must be known.
