Question #443fe

Answer 1

The solution is Acidic.

Explanation:

At room temperature:

If `pH` values is less than `7` then it represent acidic environment.

If `pH` value greater than `7` then it would represent basic environment.

And if `pH` value is equal to `7` then it would represent neutral environment.

`"Foot note"`:
In case of stomach's gastric juice, `pH` certainly be acidic because the gastric juice contain hydrochloric acid`("HCL")`. Which help to convert pepsinogen into it's active form i.e pepsin. Pepsin then work on proteins.
