Solution

$p H$ stands for power of hydrogen, which is a measurement of the hydrogen ion concentration in the body. The $p H$ scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. The total $p H$ scale ranges from 1 to 14, with 7 considered to be neutral. A $p H$ less than 7 is said to be acidic and solutions with a $p H$ greater than 7 are basic or alkaline.
