Why does the pH of a fatty solution decrease as enzymatic hydrolysis increases?

During enzymatic cleavage, hydrogen atoms/protons are released into the solution causing the pH to drop to build up of protons.

What is the difference between acidic and alkaline hydrolysis?
Acidic hydrolysis: hydrolysis in an acid solution (pH under 7) Basic hydrolysis: hydrolysis in a basic solution (pH above 7)
Why is the aqueous solution of ammonium chloride acidic?
Ammonium chloride dissociates 100% into ions in solution. The ammonium ions interact with the hydroxide ions from the water removing them from the solution. This increases the concentration of hydrogen ions, increasing the acidity of the solution. We say that a solution of ammonium chloride is acidic by hydrolysis.
As the temperature of an aqueous solution increases what does the concentration of gas dissolved in the solution do?
An aqueous solution has 0.0070 gram of oxygen dissolved in 1000. grams of water. calculate the dissolved oxygen concentration of this solution in parts per million?A. 17ppm B. 27ppm C. 7ppm D. 7ppm
Why do you add hydrochloric acid to the hydrolysis of sucrose?
HCl In solution. H + and Cl - An easy hydrolysis with this strong acid.
Would the pH of the solution be lower before or after the enzymatic reaction?
It would be higher
If an acid is added to a solution does the H plus concentration increase or decrease?
It increases.
If the (H plus ) in a solution increases the (OH-) must decrease?
Yes, it is correct.

How can you tell when hydrolysis of starch is complete?
If using acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of starch you can tell the hydrolysis is complete with the solution no longer gives a bluish/purple color with iodine solution. The color should be colorless.
Which substances decrease the H ion concentration in an solution?
An acid increase the hydrogen ion concentration in a solution.
A small amount of acid is added to a buffer solution the pH of the solution will?
A small amount of acid is added to a buffer solution. The pH of the solution will stay about the same.
What effect does the temperature have on solution rate?
acidic buffers increase pH as temperature increases, basic buffers decrease pH as temperature increases I am still searching for the reason.

Why the acidic character increases with the decrease in pH?
The acidic character increases with decrease in pH because the pH and acidity are both dependent on the hydrogen ion concentration, with pH being the negative log of the hydrogen concentration. So, at the concentration of H+ increases, the negative log of the H+ concentration decreases.

HCl In solution. H + and Cl - An easy hydrolysis with this strong acid.
Predict the nature of the solution formed from the hydrolysis ok KNO3?
The solution will be neutral to nature.
