Solution

pH of a substance gives the nature and strength of an acid or a base.
pH values of milk, human blood, seawater, and ammonia are 6, 7.35, 8.2, and 10.6 respectively. The greater the pH more the basicity. Hence the increasing order of the basicity is milk > human blood > seawater > ammonia.
