I hope this answer isn't too vague, but a pH of 5 generally indicates that whatever solution you're measuring is more or less neutral. That is, its between being extremely acidic (pH 0) or extremely basic (pH 14)
Some examples of items that have a pH level between 5 and 8 include black coffee (pH around 5), milk (pH around 6.5-6.7), and pure water (pH of 7). These pH levels indicate that the substances are generally considered slightly acidic to neutral.
green indicates the pH value of 5-6 which is slightly acidic. for the whole pH color scale go to the reference cited.
- log(1 X 10^-5 M) = 5 14 - 5 = 9 pH ----------
A pH value measures the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. pH values range from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral, below 7 acidic, and above 7 alkaline. Low pH values indicate high acidity, while high pH values indicate high alkalinity.
ph 5 is higher than ph 1
A pH of 5 is mildly acidic. The rule is a pH of 7 is neutral, anything below 7 is acidic, and anything above 7 is alkaline or basic.
The answer to 'What pH would indicate and acidic soil?' is 5. 5 is a week number and 1 is the strongest, 7 is neutral and 14 is a strong alkali 9 is week.
Anything below the pH of 7 is an acid. Distilled water is at a pH of 7 and is considered the 'middle' of the pH chart. Anything above 7 or at 7 is a base.
It's not very acidic, but yes it is. Any pH lower than seven is considered to be acidic, and any pH higher than seven is basic. If a substance has a pH of 7, that means the substance is considered to be neutral.
Most acidic is substance of pH of 2, then of pH of 5 and the substance of pH 7 is neutral and the substance of pH 11 is basic

Nothing. pH values indicate acidity levels.
pH is an indication of acidity.
A solution with a pH of 6 is considered acidic. pH values below 7 indicate acidity, while pH values above 7 indicate alkalinity.
pH numbers below 7 indicate an acid, with lower numbers indicating stronger acids. pH numbers above 7 indicate a base, with higher numbers indicating stronger bases.
PH 9
pH=7 is the neutral point on the scale.
