Which pH range is acidic?

Which pH range is acidic?

• A. 6-8
• B. 7
• C. 0-6
• D. 8-14

Answer: (C)

Acidity is shown by pH values on the lower end of the scale. Anything that is below neutral pH is considered acidic, and the lower you go, the stronger the acidity. The range that sits at the lower end of the scale is the acidic one. The ranges around neutral or on the higher end correspond to neutral or basic (alkaline) conditions, not acidity.
