1.2. Tim was asked to carry out an experiment to investigate the effect of food on the pH of saliva.
At the start of the experiment the pH of saliva in Tim’s mouth was 6.9. He ate an apple and the pH of his saliva was measured every 5 minutes for 45 minutes.
The results of the experiment are shown in the table below.
Time (minutes) | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 |
pH | 6.9 | 5.7 | 5.0 | 4.5 | 4.5 | 5.0 | 5.7 | 6.1 | 6.4 | 6.6 |
i) Five points have already been plotted. Complete the graph.
