Purpose Understanding how catalase activity is affected by pH is the purpose of this experiment. Introduction Enzymes play an important role in daily life because of the chemical reactions. Almost chemical reactions require the presence of enzymes to promote the metabolic process. They are known as the incredibly efficient and highly specific biological catalysts. Most enzymes are protein with the ability to enhance the rate of reaction between molecules. To catalyze a reaction‚ the enzymes

Then tip the cylinder to about 45 degrees then put sample into it slowly‚ DON’T spill any water or have to restart. Make sure no air bubbles are clinging. Then take down final volume of water cylinder. 6. Dump the water out‚ then dry sample off. 7. Repeat this over with the other metal samples. * Hypothesis: * My hypothesis is that even though I will find the densities and names of the unknown metals its not going to be accurate because some water will spill out. Many people are going

Introduction Chemical kinetics is the study of reaction rates. A reaction rate is the speed of the change in either reactants or products over a period of time. General kinetic rate equation is: Where [A] and [B] are the concentration of the species in the reaction. The variable k is the rate constant‚ which is a function of time and catalyst presence. The variables m and n are the order of reaction for their respective species concentration. The higher the value of the reaction order the

Research Question: To investigate how varying the pH of bromothymol blue affects the absorbance value of the solution which determines the equilibrium constant (pKa) of the indicator. Variables: Variables Variables Measured Method of measurement Independent pH of the six buffer solution A pH probe attached to a data-logger will be used to measure pH Dependent Absorption of the buffer solutions at wavelength 435.0nm and 617.0 nm A spectrophotometer (±0.001) will be used to measure absorbance

Psychotherapy Timeline Ronda A Harrison Tenth Century- Ca. 900 - The concept of mental health was first born. It was also known as mental hygiene and was introduced by Ahmed ibn Sahl al-Balkhi. He believed that mental illness could have both psychological and physiological causes. Also in the same time frame Al-Razi Rhazes recognized the concept of psychotherapy. Eighteenth Century – Between 1770 and 1774 Johann Joseph Gassner and Frank Mesmer introduced the practice of hypnotherapy. Mesmer believed

Health Level 7 For my presentation I chose the topic HL7. After doing the bit of research on the internet I found what HL7 was? The question that I will address is what does the name HL7 means‚ and why and how it was organized. What is HL7? Health Level Seven is one of the several American National Standards Institutes (ANSI) to give credit for standards Developing Organizations (SDOS) operating in the healthcare place. Health Level Seven controls in clinical and administrative data. The
