pH measurements




What are some examples of some basic/alkaline substances? If you could tell me the measurements of some common house-hold substances that would be great! Thanks for you help.

Are we doing all or only part of your homework? Drano [affil links] is off scale--over 14, ammonia [on eBay or Amazon] would be 13 or 14. baking soda [on eBay or Amazon] in a strong solution would be 9 - 10. Coke about 4. Saliva is about 8 or 9. Stomach acid about 1.
