Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 10^5 \ or \ 100,000 \ times \ more \ acidic}}

Explanation:

The pH scale stands for the power or potential of hydrogen. It measures how acidic or basic a solution based on the concentration of hydrogen ions and a scale from 1 to 14.

This scale is unique because it is logarithmic. So, every time the pH changes by 1 on the scale, the actual concentration of the solution increases or decreases by a tenfold.

So, a solution with a pH of 7 is ten times more acidic than a solution with a pH of 8. This can be translated to:

10^ {difference \ in \ pH}

The black coffee has a pH of 5 and the hand soap has a pH of 10. We want to find how many times more acidic coffee is, so we subtract 5 from 10 and get 5. The difference in pH is 5.

10^5=100,000

Coffee is <u>10⁵ or 100,000 times more acidic than hand soap.</u>

Lysosomes have lytic enzymes, the cell wall gives support, chloroplasts act in photosynthesis, and the endoplasmic reticulum act during protein and lipid synthesis.

<h3>What is the lysosome?</h3>

The lysosome is an organelle that contains hydrolytic enzymes used to break proteins, whereas the cell wall is a structure that provides physical support to plant cells.

Chloroplasts are plant organelles used during photosynthesis and the endoplasmic reticulum acts during the production of proteins and lipids.

In conclusion, lysosomes, chloroplasts (plant and algae) and endoplasmic reticulum are eukaryotic organelles with diverse functions, whereas the cell wall provides structural support to plant and fungi cells.
