__1. What does ph stand for and what does it mean?__ Potential means possible, as opposed to actual. Hydrogen means a colorless, has no smell, flammable gas that combines chemically with oxygen to form water. from Brilee it stands for pondus hydrogenii which means potential hydrogen. It is the measure of its hydrogen ion concetration by Ruby The ph scale means A measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution, numerically equal to 7 for neutral solutions, increasing with increasing alkalinity and decreasing with increasing acidity. The pH scale commonly in use ranges from 0 to 14. By Tayla l am working on it By Lance pH stands for "power of the hydronium ion", and the definition is: **//pH//** is the measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.-Bella __ 2.
