Objective of experiment * The objective of the experiment is to assess the effect of different pH conditions on enzyme activity. Hypothesis * I feel the pH affected the enzyme activity to produce product. Prediction * If the pH affected the enzyme activity to produce product‚ then rate of reaction will change. Procedure * The procedure that we followed was to take two test tubes and label one pH2 and one pH10 and incubate 1 ml of each solution for 30 minutes. Then after 30 minutes
