This experiment was performed in order to find a better understanding of whether or not pH will affect the enzyme activity. To test this, we had a different time frame to mix together substances with different pHs in order to test whether or not that specific pH was ideal for the tube. The results were as predicted, the pH increased the reaction rate if the solution was more neutral, whereas the pH that was more acidic or basic caused the reaction rate to decrease almost completely. All enzymes have an ideal pH value, which is called optimal pH. Under the optimum pH conditions, each enzyme showed the maximum activity. When the pH value deviates from the ideal conditions, the activity of the enzyme slows down and then stops. The enzyme has an active site at the substrate binding site, and the shape of the active site will change with the change of pH value. When the pH value of the reaction medium changes, the shape and structure of the enzyme will change. Depending on the extreme extent of the enzyme and pH changes, these changes may permanently destroy the enzyme, or once the conditions return to the desired range of the enzyme, the enzyme will return to normal. My hypothesis, pH affects enzyme activity because enzymes are proteins that get their molecular structure via interactions between the charges of the amino acids that form the protein chains. These interactions are in the form of a hydrogen bond which is affected by the pH level.
