The pH Scale

The pH scale is a scale from 0 to 14 which describes how acidic a certain substance is.

If it falls near pH 0, it is more of an acid. If it falls near pH 14, it is more of a base.

In other words, 0 is the most acidic and 14 is the least.

Where does a substance that you know of fall under?
