The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in a whole and diced wedges by with
The enzyme catalase was observed. The catalase was able to break down the hydrogen peroxide
In the diced banana wedge better than the whole banana because after the banana was diced that
Increases the surface area allowing the breakdown to flow. The effects of temperature on enzyme
In a liver sample were observed under iced, boiling, 37 degrees, and room temperature
Conditions. The enzymes became completely denatured under boiling conditions because they couldn’t take the intense heat. Enzymes performed in optimal conditions of 37 degrees. But
When the enzyme were iced the enzymes reacted slowly. They stop because of the iced
Conditions stopped them from moving freely, …show more content…
The old hydrogen peroxide solution used with the room temperature liver
From experiment II was acquired and a new liver sample was placed in the solution; But no
Reaction occurred. Their collection of O2 was not recorded for this experiment.
In Experiment IV, the iced liver from Experiment II was returned to room temperature
And was placed into a new solution of H2O2; It produced 43.5 milliliters of O2 in six minutes.
The results of the iced liver returned to room temperature was compared to the other result of the
Iced liver in Experiment II. Table 2 shows the O2 collected at one minute intervals for the iced
Liver and when the iced liver returned to room temperature.
In the final experiment V, the liver in a solution of pH 3.0, 3% H2O2 produced the least Amount of O2; 0 millimeters in 6 minutes. The liver in a solution of pH 10.0, 3% H2O2 produced More O2 than pH 3.0, but less than pH 7.0. It produced 13.2 milliliters of O2 in six minutes. The Results of the liver at pH 7.0, 3% H2O2 were acquired from the room temperature liver from Experiment II, and it produced the most amount of O2; 41.4 In six minutes. Graph 2 shows the Comparisons of the O2 produced for pH 3.0, pH 7.0, and pH
