If anything under 7 is acidic and rennet , in its first stage, us 5.8. Then the optimum pH for rennet is acidic
The optimum PH of pepsin ranges between 1.0 and 4.0. Pepsin exhibits about 90 percent of the maximum activity and about 35% of the maximum activity.
slightly acidic, remember most organisms have an optimum pH of 6.6 or so.
Pepsin is therefore acidic since the pH in the stomach is 2
It depends on the pH of the dilutant. if the dilution substance is base the acidic solution will become less acidic moving toward neutral pH, the more it is diluted the less acidic it will become. A base solution will remain base or about 7 pH
I believe it's 7.3, the pH of human blood, as most enzymatic reactions occur there. However, there are special enzymes, such as the ones which are in the stomach, which work best at around a pH of 2.
Adding base will increase pH-level
It is a base on the PH Scale, the opposite of acidic.
a pH scale.
The optimum pH of salivary amylase is 6.8 (slightly acidic).
pH = 4 is mildly acidic. The pH scale is [H = 1 strongly acidic pH = 4 mildly acidic pH = 7 neutral ( Water) pH = 9 mildly alkaline pH = 14 strongly alkaline.
The measurement for how acidic or base a solution is called pH level. The pH level is on a scale from 1-14. One being very acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being very base.
When adding a strong acid to an acidic solution pH decreases. Adding a strong base to an acidic solution the pH increases.
