The correct answer is: Hydrophilic

Hydrophilic substances are attracted to water and have a pH below 7.0, making them acidic. In contrast, alkalis have a pH above 7.0, making them basic or alkaline. Acids, which are hydrophilic substances, have a pH below 7.0 as well. Lipophilic substances are attracted to fats and oils and are not related to pH levels.
