Enzymes are defined as biocatalyst. They facilitate the biological reaction like digestion, energy production, etc. The activity of the enzyme is a pH⁻ dependent property. Each enzyme works within a small range of pH. This pH decides the activity of the enzyme and is known as the optimal pH. This is because a change in the pH of the medium may make or break the inter- or intramolecular hydrogen bonds which changes the activity of the enzyme. The change in pH changes the inter or intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the enzyme and the medium. This changes the state of the enzyme. If in a cer
