I'd really appreciate since the lab report requires me to wrte my own defintion of it.

Get yourself a dictonary, a science book... or google it.... We are not going to do your homework for you.... ESPECIALLY when you are playing on the computer while you are writing your report!!!!!! lol :+)

pH is a measure of the concentration of H+ ions in a solution. It shows the level of acidity or the level of basicness on a scale of 1 to 14 (1 being acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being basic)

pH is defined as the negative log of the hydrogen ion,( H+) , concentration. It is a scale that goes from 0 to 14 and the steps are powers of 10. Acid is 1 to 6.9, 7 is neutral (distilled water), 7.1 to 14 is basic, alkaline.There is a pOH scale also.

The level of acid in the water =]
We JUST learned about this. Rain water is about an 8.
Ph 8.

Simply the symbol of a scale, numbered from 0 to 14, that rates water solutions according to their acidity or alkalinity.

pH is the negative log of the concentration of H+ ions.
If you are required to write something more "poetic" then you may be learning in the wrong place.

pH is a numeric value used to indicate how acid a solution is.
Any value below 7 is acid, any value above 7 is basic. 7 is neutral.

PH= -LOG10 [H+]
DEFINITION:
PH IS DEFINED AS THE NEGATIVE LOG TO THE BASE 10 OF HYDROGEN ION CONCENTRATION IN THE MOLECULE.

uh, Wade? How will MY own words help you write YOUR own definition?
