Question

A liquid has a pH of 8. What does this mean?

  1. It is weakly acidic
  2. It is weakly alkaline
  3. It is neutral
  4. It is strongly alkaline

hintHint:

A pH of greater than 7 indicates a base.

The correct answer is: It is weakly alkaline


    pH is a measure of how acidic/basic water is. The range goes from 0 - 14, with 7 being neutral. pHs of less than 7 indicate acidity, whereas a pH of greater than 7 indicates a base.
    pH 8 means it is weakly alkaline.
