pH
pH is the measure of soil's acidity or alkalinity, measured on a scale of 1 to 14. Water is considered neutral at pH 7.
pH levels below 7 are classified as acidic, or "sour". Levels above 7 are basic, alkaline or "sweet".
Most plants prefer a slightly acidic soil pH of 6.0 to 6.5.
Modifying soil pH will not occur overnight. It may take one or two years for the soil pH level to be
raised or lowered.

Electrochemistry Dictionary
pH
"A measure of the acidity/alkalinity (basicity) of a solution. The pH scale extends from 0 to 14 (in aqueous solutions at room temperature). A pH value of 7 indicates a neutral (neither acidic nor basic) solution. A pH value of less than 7 indicates an acidic solution, the acidity increases with decreasing pH value. A pH value of more than 7 indicates a basic solution, the basicity or alkalinity increases with increasing pH value. "

Glossary of water terms
pH
a measure of the relative acidity or alkalinity of water. Water with a pH of 7 is neutral; lower pH levels indicate increasing acidity, while pH levels higher than 7 indicate increasingly basic solutions.

Physical Geography Terms and Meanings
pH
Scale used to measure the alkalinity or acidity of a substance through the determination of the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution. A pH of 7.0 is neutral. Values below 7.0, to a minimum of 0.0, indicate increasing acidity. Values above 7.0, to a maximum of 14.0, indicate increasing alkalinity.

pH
An expression of the intensity of the basic or acid condition of a liquid; may range from 0 to 14, where 0 is the most acid and 7 is neutral. Natural waters usually have a pH between 6.5 and 8.5.

Environmental Engineering (English ver.)
pH
A term used to describe hydrogen ion activity in an aqueous solution; a solution of pH 0 to 7 is acid; pH 7 is neutral; and pH 7 to 14 is alkaline.

pH (HYDROGEN ION CONCENTRATION)
(1) A convenient method of expressing the acidity or basicity of a solution in terms of the logarithm of the reciprocal (or negative logarithm) of the hydrogen ion concentration. The pH scale runs from 0 to 14; a pH value of 7.0 indicates a neutral solution. Values above 7.0 pH indicate basicity (basic solutions); those below 7.0 pH indicate acidity (acidic solutions). Natural waters usually have a pH between 6.5 and 8.5. Because the units are derived from common logarithms, a difference of one pH unit indicates a tenfold (101) difference in acidity; similarly, a difference of two units indicates a hundredfold (102) difference in acidity. The term originally derived from "potential of hydrogen," or hydrogen power. (2) A term indicating the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution, i.e., a measure of the solution's acidity. The term (from French, pouvoir hydrogène, or literally, "hydrogen power") is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions (protons): pH = -log10 (H+), where (H+) is the concentration of H+ ions in moles per liter (see Mole). Because H+ ions associate with water molecules to form hydronium (H3O+) ions (see Acid and Base), pH also is often expressed in terms of the concentration of hydronium ions. In pure water at 22 C (72 F),H3O+ and hydroxyl (OH-) ions exist in equal quantities; the concentration of each is 0.107 moles/liter. Consequently, the pH of pure water is -log (0.107), which equals log 107, or 7. If an acid is added to water, however, an excess of H3O+ ions is formed; their concentration can range between 0.106 and 0.10 moles/liter, depending on the strength and amount of the acid. Therefore, acid solutions have a pH ranging from 6 (for a weak acid) to 1 (for a strong acid). Inversely, a basic solution has a low concentration of H3O+ ions and an excess of OH- ions, and the pH ranges from 8 (for a weak base) to 14 (for a strong base).

pH (pronounce as separate letters)
 pH is an expression of the intensity of the basic or acid condition of a liquid. Mathematically, pH is the logarithm (base 10) of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration, [H+]. pH= Log (I/[H+]) The pH may range from 0 to 14, where 0 is most acid, 14 most basic, and 7 neutral. Natural waters usually have a pH between 6.5 and 8.5.

PH Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries

Wikipedia English - The Free Encyclopedia
PH
pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Aqueous solutions at 25 ℃ with a pH less than seven are considered acidic, while those with a pH greater than seven are considered basic (alkaline). The pH of 7.0 is defined as 'neutral' at 25 ℃ because at this pH the concentration of H3O+ equals the concentration of OH  in pure water. pH is formally dependent upon the activity of hydronium ions (H3O+), but for very dilute solutions, the molarity of H3O+ may be used as a substitute with little loss of accuracy. (H+ is often used as a synonym for H3O+.) Because pH is dependent on ionic activity, a property which cannot be measured easily or fully predicted theoretically, it is difficult to determine an accurate value for the pH of a solution. The pH reading of a solution is usually obtained by comparing unknown solutions to those of known pH, and there are several ways to do so.
