Does any body understand were these go form strongest acid to strongest base. I understand were some of them go but I’m not sure about all of them? Thanks for any help!!!
Human blood- 7.4
Stomach contents- 1.6
Soda pop- 3.0
Drain cleaner- 14.0
Sea water- 8.7
Milk- 6.5
Fresh water- 7.0

<--------- 7 ----------> (pH)
acid base
the smaller pH the stronger acid
the bigger pH the stronger base
so you should arrange them from the smallest pH to the biggest
stomach content (1.6)
soda pop (3)
milk (6.5)
fresh water (7, of course neutral)
human blood (7.4)
sea water (8.7)
drain cleaner (8.7)

The strongest acids have the lowest pHs and the strongest bases have the highest ones, so you just have to order the list by pH:
Strongest Acids
Stomach contents: 1.6
Soda Pop: 3.0
Milk: 6.5
Fresh Water: 7.0
Human Blood: 7.4
Sea Water: 8.7
Drain Cleaner: 14.0
Strongest Bases

The numbers are pH's. The lowest pH's are strongest acids, highest are strongest bases, and 7.0 is neutral. pH is the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration, [H+]. So the [H+] of soda pop is 10^-3 M (moles per liter).
