pH scale is when you test something and tells you whether the item is acidic or basic...
1-7 is acidic
7 is neutral
7-14 is basic

The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. It ranges from 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than 7 is acidic, and a pH greater than 7 is basic. Each whole pH value below 7 is ten times more acidic than the next higher value. For example, a pH of 4 is ten times more acidic than a pH of 5 and 100 times (10 times 10) more acidic than a pH of 6. The same holds true for pH values above 7, each of which is ten times more alkaline—another way to say basic—than the next lower whole value. For example, a pH of 10 is ten times more alkaline than a pH of 9.

PH value less than 7 is acidic and if more than 7 basic alkaline. PH value of 7 is concidered neutral. PH value differs from its uses.

The pH scale is a 'number line' that ranges from 1 to 14.
1 being the most acidic.
14 being the most basic.
Right in the middle, 7 is neutral.
This scale is used in many chemical computations in order to find a wide variety of information.
Enjoy.

1-6 is acidic.
7 is neutral.
7-14 is basic.

7 is neutral anything above 7 is more acidic and anything below 7 is more basic
