what is the ph level of kiwis?

Well.. you didn't really ask a complete question as a Kiwi is a new zealand parrot, particulary fond of windscreen rubber and lives mainly around fjiordland of the south island. It would be difficult to test the Ph of this bird as it would be alkaline in his bladder whilst acid in his stomach!!\nMy feeling is you are asking about the PH of a Kiwi Fruit. Usually the most important thing for a kiwi fruit is it's sugar content which is measured on the brick scale. Kiwi fruit is mildly acid so it is probably going to be something like 5-6 on the scale of acidity.

Since pH basically shows how acidic or alkaline something is.... you can get a comparison chart of acidic and alkaline products/food items.\nCheck the below links.\n\nhttp://www.thewolfeclinic.com/acidalkfoods.html\n\nhttp://www.souzaoenterprises.com/pHFoodscomp.gif\n\nhttp://www.phsciences.com/about_ph/food_chart.asp\n\nhttp://www.bestofsupplements.com/ph_chart.htm

It would depend on the brand and the concentration, but it is almost surely going to be basic, or have a pH higher than 7.

no it doesnt , some fruites are huge but only have one seed inside for example the durian which is located in singapore ,china,tailand ....kiwi on the other hand is small but has lots of seeds

There are many types of pH indicators which will change color withint a certain range of pH values.  Many of these indicators might be dificult for the "common person" to get a hold of though.\n\nUsing Litmus paper is an easy way to test the pH of a substance.\nBased on the color change of the Litmus paper, a general idea of the pH can be determined.\n\nOne can also use other, natural, indicators.\nFor example, red cabbage contains a natural pH indicator which can be extracted by boiling (this will STINK up your whole house, best to do it outside of possible).\nhttp://chemistry.about.com/library/weekly/aa012803a.htm\n\nYou can also get pH probles whcih work by placing an electrode into the solution to be measured and getting a reading off of the either digital display or, in the case of cheaper probles, the value the needle points to on the meter.  Some of the "good qualitity" probles can be a little expensive, but a cheap substitute is a soil pH meter.  Although soil pH metes are really not designed to be used to measure a solution's pH and only have a limited range, it can work well for many applications.\n\nIf you want to get a numeric value for the pH,\nMy advice is to go with the soil pH meter if you dont plan on measuring anything which will have pH values below roughly 3 or 4 and nothing higher than about 8 or 9.  If you do plan to, you might want to go with a "real" pH meter.\n\nIf you just want a general range of the pH (whether something is just acidic or alkiline), then go with Litmus paper or some other form of cheap indicator (cabbage juice).

The American educational system is doomed.\n\nb) base is the best answer. The more basic, the higher the pH. More acidic=lower pH. Neutral=pH of 7 (pure water). Lemon juice would have a pH of 2 or so. Hydrochloric acid is near zero. Drain cleaner is like 13.\n\nAt least they still teach people how to use computers!

Saturated Limewater has a pH of about 12.4 according to www.reefkeeping.com. An interesting read at 3 O'clock in the morning !!

Yes. It raises the pH, making the fruit less acidic.

It should have a pH of 12 (assuming that in order to reach neutral pH of 7 we need the same amount of antacid solution as the amount of stomach acid).

pH at pKa +- 1 unit. from henderson hasselbalch\npH = pKa + log [base]/[acid] \ngiving +- 1 when the ratios are 1/10 or 10/1 in concentration\nthe capacity of a buffer is achieved when the ratio of weak acid to conjugate base exceeds 10:1 or vice versa. \nDoes that help?

Saliva usually has a neutral pH of between 6 and 8.  The small intestines are usually very basic or alkaline (high pH), meaning that the hydrogen ion concentration is very low.  The reason for this is that the contents coming into the small intestine from the stomach is very acidic and various digestive juices, like bile, are pumped into the small intestine to neutralize the acids (which can damage the lining of the small intestine if they aren't neutralized).

What I think you're talking about are how acidic and how basic something is according to the pH scale.  Maybe?  \n\nWe us the pH scale to describe how acidic or how basic a solution is. pH stands for potential of hydrogen. It's numbered from 1 to 14--increasing in basicity.\n\nHydrogen and hydroxide ions are very reactive, and the proper balance of these ions is critical for the proper functioning of chemical processes within an organism.\n\nA compound that donates hydrogen ions to solutions is called an acid.  Examples of an acid would be something like lemon juice and tomato juice.  Even the gastric juice inside of your stomach.\n\nA base is a compound that accepts hydrogen ions and removes them from solutions.  Examples of a base would be something like bleach or oven cleaner.\n\nThe increasing acidity means there's a higher concentration of H+.  The decreasing basicity means there's a lower concentration of H+.  \n\nPURE WATER is neutral----or 7 on the pH scale.\n\nHope this helps. :o)

pickling vinegar is about 10% acetic acid\nlemon juice is pretty acidic (pH about 2.2)\nboth at the grocery store\n \n(but you might have better luck reacting those items with a base rather than an acid) \n(chlorine bleach is an easy to get, though rather strong, base -\ndilute it if you use it)

7.4\n\nThe normal pH of human arterial blood is approximately 7.40 (normal range is 7.35-7.45). Blood that has a pH below 7.35 is acidic, while blood pH above 7.45 is alkaline

Kiwifruit can be grown in most temperate climates with adequate summer heat. Where Actinidia deliciosa is not hardy, other species can be grown as substitutes.\n\nKiwifruit is commercially grown on sturdy support structures, as it can produce several tonnes per hectare, more than the rather weak vines can support. These are generally equipped with a watering system for irrigation and frost protection in the spring.\n\nKiwifruit vines require vigorous pruning, similar to that of grapevines. Fruit is borne on one-year-old and older canes, but production declines as each cane ages. Canes should be pruned off and replaced after their third year.

pH 6.5 sounds about right - it depends where you live and the degree of chlorination, etc.\n\nTry measuring it.

That depends on the type of pH stripe. They come with a color scale so you can compare the color with the standards.
