What is the relationship between temperature and pH, and how do they interact? Discover a quick and informative exploration of their complex ‘love-hate’ relationship in the lab!"
In scientific terms:
Temperature affects pH because the ionization of water changes with temperature.
Higher temperatures generally cause a decrease in the pH of pure water (but it doesn’t mean it becomes acidic).
Biological systems & chemical reactions are highly sensitive to both pH and temperature, making their balance crucial in laboratory & industrial settings.
