Well... there actually are areas of the seafloor that are spreading due to tectonic plates moving apart, but there are also places where these plates meet and one slides under the other (subduction zones) as a result, the earth is not getting bigger since these two actions cancel each other out. If that makes any sense.

That’s what I do know, but if you happen to need extra information, please let me know and I can go research it.
Have a great evening!

2) Neutral - salt solution pH 7.

3) Alkaline - baking soda pH 9, bleach pH 13.

pH is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.

When pH is less than seven (pH<7), solution is acidic.

When is equal seven (pH = 7), solution is neutral.
