pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, expressed on a scale from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Values below 7 indicate acidity, while values above 7 indicate alkalinity. This measurement is crucial for understanding water quality as it influences various chemical and biological processes in aquatic environments, thus connecting to the assessment and monitoring of water quality parameters.
