Which statement correctly compares the pH of water to that of other substances?

The pH of water increases as its temperature increases, while other substances have a stable pH.
The pH of water is neutral; it is higher than the pH of acids and lower than the pH of bases.
Water contains more hydrogen ions than most other substances, giving it a higher pH.
Water is neutral and has a pH of 0; acids have a pH greater than 0, and bases have a pH less than 0.
