Egg whites can have a pH of 8 to 9 (higher in wild chickens). So egg whites could be classified as a low alkaline food.

Does frying an egg make the egg turn it to a solid?

Proteins become denatured (irreversable uncoiled and unbent) when exposed to high temperatures, extreme pH's and many other factors. When the egg is cooked (exposed to high temperatures) the proteins denature and become rigid. Since denaturation is irreversable, you cannot uncook an egg.


What is the word used to describe the distortion and inactivation of a protein by pH or heat?

Denatured protein. See attached Wikipedia Denatured Protein link. Denaturation. Proteins are fragile and its function depends on its 3D shape. High heat, salt concentration, pH, radiation etc will cause a protein to 'unravel' or change shape which leaves the protein nonfunctional. It is usually irreversible. Think of it as frying an egg. Eggs are protein right? When you fry an egg you change its shape and it is no longer opaque. You cannot unfry an egg.

PH 75 is the most acid.


If an egg white is a weak alkali and oven cleaner is a strong alkali will the pH of the egg white be higher or lower than the pH of the oven cleaner and why?

The pH scale ranges from 1 to 14, with 1 being extremely acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being extremely alkaline. The pH of the egg white will be lower than that of the over cleaner. Strong alkali things are also called strong bases, and they have high pH values. (about 10 to 14). Fat and carbon are easily dissolved in reaction with alkaline solutions. This is why alkaline detergents (pH: 12-14) are very efficient in cleaning greasy ovens. The more alkaline the oven cleaner, the better the results you'll get. But good/powerful oven cleaners should contain more essential ingredients (besides being alkaline) in order to be effective! It should have the ability to cling to the oven walls and to dissolve carbon in cold action. see www.oven-cleaning-guide.com/welldone-oven-cleaner Weak alkali things, or weak bases, have pH values slightly greater than 7 (7 to about 10) Neutral water is of course pH 7. Weak alkali detergents are usually not suitable for removing baked-on fat (carbon) from soiled oven. Slightly acidic things have a pH slightly below 7 (4-7), and strong acids have pH below that (0-4).
