No.....pH is related to the hydrogen ion concentration and well that kind of forces you into an aqeous environment. Organic compounds would therefore in many cases not have a pH because they have no hydronium and you can't take the log of 0. Now rocks react with a bit of water and impart a pH but once again you have to have water at the party. So once again the answer is NOPE!

No, only water soluble substances. Back in about 1986 I read an interesting article in Scientific American about super acids with pH less than zero and super bases with pH greater than 14.

I would say yes. Now, I not sure, but, everything can be considered to have a pH, from rocks to water.

Organic or inorganic chemicals have some pH ranges 0-14. However in some special case below zero is also pH ................... ......................... Yes. Its also happen due to mathematics......................
