In electrical systems, the term used to indicate neither an excess nor a lack of electrons; a condition of balance between positive and negative charges In chemistry, the term used to indicate a balance between acids and bases; the neutral point on the pH scale is 7 0, indicating the presence of equal numbers of free hydrogen (acidic) and hydroxide (basic) ions
Neutral is used to describe things that have a pale colour such as cream or grey, or that have no colour at all. At the horizon the land mass becomes a continuous pale neutral grey
is the pH at which there are equal numbers of [H+] ions and [OH-] ions Water is more ionized at body temperature than at room temperature; neutral is pH 6 8 rather than 7 0 This is also the average pH inside the cell The body preserves neutrality (pH 6 8) inside our cells, where most of the body's chemistry occurs, and maintains the blood at pH 7 4, which is 0 6 pH units on the alkaline side of neutral (Reeves and Rahn, 1979)
