neutral because an acid is between 1 and 6 and a base is between 8 and 14

Answer: A solution with a pH of 7 must be neutral.

Explanation:

If a solution has pH of 7 then the concentration of \(H^+\) ions and \(OH^{-}\) ions will be equal.

Thus, the concentration for both \(H^+\) ions and \(OH^{-}\) ions will be \(1 \times 10^{-7}\). Generally, pH at 7 is considered as neutral.

Thus, it is concluded that a solution with pH of 7 must be neutral.
