The pH scale is usually stated as between zero and 14 (although negative pH is sometimes included and thus the scale is extended to -1 to 14)

Typical pH's ; battery acid is around zero, household bleach 13, water 7, blood 7.3, urine 6, seawater 8, vinegar 3

How is pH scale different from other scales of measurement like the Fahrenheit temperature scale?

pH is a logarithmic scale, so a change of 1 in pH means a change of 10 in the quantity. It is also negative, so as pH increases the measured quantity actuallly goes down. The temperature scales are simply direct scales; all changes mean the same thing and going up means going up.

What are compounds that in solution maintain pH within given limits?

Buffer solutions are compounds that in solution maintain pH within given limits by resisting changes in pH when an acid or base is added. Buffers typically consist of a weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid, which help stabilize the pH of the solution.

What are intervals of pH?

Intervals of pH represent ranges of acidity or alkalinity. For example, pH 0-6 is acidic, pH 7 is neutral, and pH 8-14 is alkaline. These intervals help in categorizing substances based on their level of acidity or alkalinity.
