Answer 1

A. pH relates to relative acid-base ion balance in a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

PS. The ocean is slightly alkaline ;)

Answer 2

Option a) pH relates to relative acid-base ion

Step-by-step explanation:

pH is simply the measure of acidity and alkalinity of a solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 with the following notification:

1. pH reading between 0 and 6 indicates that the solution is acidic

2. pH reading of 7 indicates that the solution is neutral.

3. pH reading between 8 and 14 indicates that the solution is alkaline/basic.
