pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in a medium. For example, if you are saying a solution with pH 6.5, it means that the concentration of H+ ions in that solution expressed in negative logarithmic term is 6.5. pH is a scale, a scale to measure the H+ ion concentration in a medium. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The middle value in the scale (7) is considered as a neutral pH and any solution with pH below 7 is considered as acidic pH. Similarly any solution with pH above 7 is considered as a basic solution. Like the Celsius temperature scale, the pH scale is also constructed on the basis of water, the universal solvent and also the solvent of life.pH of water is 7 and it is considered as a neutral pH. The term neutral does not mean that water does not contain H+ ions. In fact the term neutral means water contains equal number of H+ and OH- ions. Everyone knows that the pH of water is 7 and it is a neutral pH. But people often forgot to think why the pH of water is 7; from where the value 7 comes... is it a randomly assigned value to water? No, not at all.., the value 7 is an absolute value derived from the ion product of water. The ion product (the product of ions in water i.e., product of H+ and OH-) of water thus forms the basis of pH scale. The video tutorial explains how water got the pH value 7 and how the ion product of water is related to pH scale.
