Mold thrives in acidic environments, making alkaline environments less conducive for mold growth. However, some molds are adaptable and can still grow in alkaline conditions if other factors such as moisture and nutrients are present. Regular cleaning and maintenance to prevent mold growth is still important, regardless of the pH level of the environment.

Is Hydrogen oxide acid or alkali?
Hydrogen oxide is neither an acid nor an alkali. It is water, which is a neutral substance.
Is bread becoming mouldy physical or chemical change?
Bread has the right environment for mould spores to grow. It is warm (if kept out of the fridge), has a moisture content & the surface is textured perfectly for mould spores to take. Therefore it is a perfect host for their growth. As the mould spores grow, they consume the moisture in the bread and they spread into larger moulds as they consume more water. So in response to it being a chemical or physical change, there is something of both processes occurring. As the mould grows there are enzymes being produced by the mould which affect the bread and change its chemical nature, also the physical change is obvious as the bread shrivels due to dehydration. Also the colour and texture constitute a physical change. Hope this helps
