Nicole Reardon Biology 1520‚ Section P2 Effects of penicillin and temperature on the growth of Escherichia coli Abstract Bacteria growth is known to be either augmented or impeded by a number of various factors; in this experiment‚ our group tested how E. coli is affected by penicillin as well as how different temperatures can affect bacteria growth. We know that antibiotics are generally specialized against certain types of bacteria—more specifically‚ some are most effective against Gram-negative

The Effect of the Concentration of Sulphuric Acid on the Reaction Rate with Magnesium Sarah Cain SCH 4UB Mr. Lankin April 1‚ 2009 Introduction The nature of the problem is to design an investigation that examines a variable affecting the reaction rate. In this experiment‚ magnesium will be reacted with different concentrations of sulphuric acid. The reaction is shown by the following chemical equation: H2SO4 (l) + Mg (s) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2

the enzyme’s activity are temperature and pH‚ and each enzyme works best at a particular temperature and pH. The purpose of this enzyme kinetic experiment was to observe the effect of temperature and pH on the reaction of barley alpha-amylase enzyme with starch substrate and establish the optimum temperature and pH for this reaction. The optimum temperature and pH for the reaction of alpha-amylase and starch was predicted to be a temperature of 50°C and a pH of 5. The optimum temperature and pH for

Chlorophyll Extraction This easy science project shows simple and efficient method of chlorophyll extraction from a plant. This is only a demonstration of working method which can be refined and used for a full scale science project. Plants contain many pigments in different proportions. For flowering plants it’s mostly a combination of chlorophyll-A‚ chlorophyll-B‚ pheophytin and Carotenes. These pigments have shades of green‚ blue green‚ grayish‚ and yellow-orange. Their concentration is

Chemical Kinetics Factors Affecting Reaction Rate OVERVIEW Chemical reactions occur at different rates. In this experiment you will consider some of the key factors that influence the rate of a reaction: nature of reactants - particle size temperature concentration catalysts According to the collision theory‚ the rate of a reaction depends on the frequency of collisions between reacting particles. The more frequent the collisions‚ the faster the rate of the reaction. However‚ in order for the

For this experiment‚ there will be an optimal point for each factor. I believe that the optimal temperature for the enzyme sucrase will be 37°C because that is the point where the temperature increases the rate of reaction to its greatest point without denaturing it. For the pH test‚ I think that the optimal pH for sucrase will be the pH of 7 because it is neutral so it won’t affect the charge in a negative or positive way. For the denaturation test‚ I think that the optimal treatment for the enzyme

2. How is the colour related to surface temperature of the star? The correlation between the surface temperature of a star and its colour is due to the phenomena known as black body radiation .A star is a black body‚where it aborbs all the radiation falling upon it.AS its temperatures gets hotter thanits surrounding‚the star radiates its on electromagnetic radiation‚known as black body radiation. This radiation is distributed unevenly but contionously through multiple wavelengths of the electromagnetic

Some things I do to stay cool is to drink water‚ wear less clothes and turn the fan/ air conditioner on at the location I am at. 2. What can you do to warm up on a cold day? On a cold day‚ I can wear more clothes like a sweater‚ I can lit up the fire‚ I can drink hot chocolate‚ or I can cuddle with my pets. 3. What things does your body do automatically to cool down
