Best Answer

Soaps are alkali substances so by adding lemon juice (an acid substance) you will decrease the pH (because acid is low and alkaline is high) depening on the amount of lemon juice you add and the concentration of it would depend on your outcome, you may just make it slightly less alkali, you may neutralise it, or you may even acidify it if you were to add enough.

I hope this was helpful :)

How much does lemon juice lower pH?

Lemon juice lowers pH by increasing the amount of Hydronium ions and decreasing the amount of Hydroxide ions. pH is the measurement of Hydronium ions. If there is more hydronium ions, the lower the pH will be. Lemon juice increases the amount of Hydronium ions by adding a Hydrogen atom into solution when the citric acid dissociates.
