Determining the soil textures is often aided with the use of a soil texture triangle.

alkalinity in soils. pH is defined as the negative logarithm

(base 10) of the activity of hydronium ions (H+ or, more precisely, H3O+aq) in a solution.

In water, it normally ranges from -1 to 14, with 7 being neutral. A pH below 7 is is acidic and above 7 is alkaline.
The pH value in soils - 2,5 to 12,5.

soil solution and sorbed to soil surfaces.

While pH is

the measure of H+ in solution, Al3+ is important in acid soils because between pH 4 and 6, Al3+ reacts with water (H2O) forming AlOH2+, and Al(OH)2+, releasing extra H+ ions. Every Al3+ ion can create[ 3 H+ ions.

Many other processes contribute to the formation of acid soils including rainfall, fertilizer use, plant root activity and the weathering of primary and secondary soil minerals. Acid soils can also be caused by pollutants such as acid rain and mine spoilings.

If the pH is higher than 7.4, then the reaction

of the soil is alkaline, lower - acidic.
In this case, acidic soils are classified as follows:
very strongly acidic - pH is within <4.0,
strong acid - pH 4.1-4.5,
medium acid - pH 4.6-5.0,
slightly acid - pH 5.1- 6.0,
weakly alkaline soils have pH 7.5-8.5,
strongly alkaline soils 8.6-10.0,
sharply alkaline pH> 10.0

formerly Soil Conservation Service classifies soil pH ranges as follows

three general pools:
living biomass of microorganisms,
fresh and partially

decomposed residues,
and humus: the well-decomposed organic material.

to the fraction of soil organic matter that is amorphous

and without the cellular cake structure characteristic of plants, micro-organisms or animals.
Humus significantly influences the bulk density of soil and contributes to moisture and nutrient retention. Soil formation begins with the weathering of humus.

is organic due to an accumulation of organic carbon. The

three major horizons are: (A) surface horizon, (B) illuvial horizon (subsoil) and (C) substratum. Some soils have an organic horizon (O) on the surface. Hard bedrock, which is not soil, uses the letter R.
