The abbreveation used for potential hydrogen. pH represents the quantity of hydrogen ions. A measure of the acidity and alklinity of a substance; the ph scale has a range of 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. A pH below 7 is an acidic solution; a pH above 7 is an alkaline solution. Characteristics that can be determined without a chemical reaction and that do not cause a chemical change in the substance.
Yes, negative pH is possible, but not in water as a solvent. The range of pH in water is 0 to 14 (to be more precise, it is -1.7 to 15.7, but for simplicity's sake, we start with the usual values.) Thus, what pH indicates is the ability of the acid to form H3O+, which can then donate a proton.
