pH indicators‚ in chemistry‚ are usually a weak acid or base that are naturally occurring in various plants and flowers and can act as dyes. Some examples of indicators are Litmus (Comes from a plant species called a lichen)‚ Phenolphthalein‚ Thymol blue‚ Bromocresol green and Universal indicator. All these indicators have a certain turning point in color once a certain concentration equilibrium of Hydrogen cations in reached (H +) or a certain concentration equilibrium of H3O+(Also OH - using Arrhenius

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to test if altering the pH of the milk will trigger a hydrophobic reaction. It will also give me a better understanding of the scientific method‚ hydrophobic reactions‚ and how pH affects substances. If the vinegar and salt are added to the heated milk‚ then the milk will curdle. I came to this conclusion based on common knowledge and the text introducing the experiment. I have not made cheese at home before‚ but I have made Hamburger Helper meals

across a plasma membrane is affected by amylase. We prepared a simulated digestive tract of a caterpillar‚ as the plasma membrane‚ to see if the amylase breaking down the cooked starch affected the diffusion process. My hypothesis for this experiment is that the amylase breaking down the starch will allow the glucose to diffuse out of the plasma membrane easier than if amylase wasn’t present with the starch. The null hypothesis for this experiment is that when amylase is added with starch it does not make

molecule of substrate. Amylase is an enzyme in human saliva and in other organisms and its substrate is starch. When the active site of amylase binds with the starch‚ hydrolysis takes place. When the hydrolysis (the breaking of a chemical bond with the insertion of the ions of a water molecule) of starch is complete you are left with a disaccharide called maltose. Enzymes are necessary for metabolic reactions‚ the question I pose is this--do variances of temperature‚ ph‚ substrate and enzyme concentration

table of results. The graph shows that the highest rate of reaction is at pH 7. This therefore supports my theory that at pH 7 the rate of reaction will be highest. This relate to other resources‚ such as books and the internet‚ which show that the optimum pH value for catalase is pH7‚ therefore there is no difference between the optimum pH and the pH used in the experiment‚ hence the enzyme structure is not affected by the pH and is most active. However the graph inadequately supports the second
