The assertion is true. Urine has a pH range of 4.5 to 8.0, with an average of around 6.0. This indicates that urine is slightly acidic in nature. The reason is also true, as urine contains various acidic substances such as urea, uric acid, and creatinine. These substances are produced as a result of the body's metabolic processes and are excreted through urine.
