Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Knowing the dependence of pH on [H+], we can summarize as follows: If pH < 7, then the solution is acidic. If pH = 7, then the solution is neutral. If pH > 7, then the solution is basic.
Detailed explanation-2: -Consequently, solutions with pH values of less than 7 are acidic, while solutions with pH values higher than 7 are basic.
Detailed explanation-3: -Any pH higher than 8 is basic or alkaline, and any under 6 is acidic.
