The normal range for pH of urine is
A
less than 7.0
B
greater than 8.0
C
4.5-8.0
D
usually around 6.0
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The normal values range from pH 4.6 to 8.0. The examples above are common measurements for results of these tests. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples.

Detailed explanation-2: -The American Association for Clinical Chemistry says the normal urine pH range is between 4.5 and 8. Any pH higher than 8 is basic or alkaline, and any under 6 is acidic. A urine pH test is carried out as a part of a urinalysis. After performing a urine pH test, doctors can use the results to diagnose various diseases.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is a normal vaginal pH? A normal vaginal pH level is between 3.8 and 4.5, which is moderately acidic. However, what constitutes a “normal” pH level can vary slightly based on your stage of life. For example, during your reproductive years (ages 15 to 49), your vaginal pH should be below or equal to 4.5.

Detailed explanation-4: -Generally, any number in the range of 4.5 to 8.0 is not a cause for concern. However, chronically acidic urine could indicate underlying health issues or diseases.

Detailed explanation-5: -Normal Results The normal range for 24-hour urine volume is 800 to 2, 000 milliliters per day (with a normal fluid intake of about 2 liters per day).
