pH is the measure of the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution. Solutions with a high concentration of hydrogen ions have a low pH and solutions with a low concentrations of H+ ions have a high pH.

Water that consists of a higher pH level causes water that contains metals such as lead that can lead to health problems. Water with a lower pH level generally have few negative health effects. Along with drinking water if the pH of water is dramatically changed both animals and plants could start dying or develop disease.

pH is measured  mathematically in logarithmic units (0-14), and scientifically measured in moles per liter.

Basic- Having a pH level greater than 7
Acidity- Having a pH level less than 7
Alkalinity-The ability of water to neutralize an acid
Neutral- Having a pH level of 7
Litmus paper - Paper stained with litmus,that is used to indicate the acidity or alkalinity of a substance. Blue litmus paper turns red in contact with and acid, while red litmus paper turns blue when in contact with a base.

Water between the pH rage of 6.5 and 8.5 is the amount of pH  that is safe for humans to consume. Saltwater animals prefer a  more basic pH level of 8 or above.  Freshwater animals prefer a neutral range of pH levels raging from 5.5-7.5

Pollution from chemical dumping into bodies of water can drastically change the pH of the water. Changes in pH levels can cause water to be toxic, which can result in damage to aquatic life.
