There was a controlled and an experimental substance. The controlled substance was the one with starch in the dialysis bag‚ and the experimental substance was the one with starch and amylase in the dialysis bag. Both had the same solvent outside of the bag (Lugols and Distilled Water). The color change differed from inside and outside the bag as time went on‚ and at the end of the 45 minutes‚ the two bags had changed colors. The solute in the controlled substance had a darker color to it‚ with it

I.Purpose The purpose of this lab is to show how potential energy and kinetic energy is shown and transferred using a model rollercoaster. This lab also demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Energy. II.Introduction Potential and Kinetic energy have a very big relationship. The Law of Conservation of Energy states that “Energy cannot be destroyed or created‚ but can be transformed or transferred.” This lab will help demonstrate this law and show the conversion between Kinetic and Potential

McLean 1 Creating Acetylene Gas Introduction The purpose of the lab was to determine the ratio of air to acetylene results in complete combustion of acetylene gas. The balanced chemical equation for this experiment was C2H2(g) + O2(g) --> CO2(g)+ H2O(l). Complete combustion is the reaction of an element or compound with oxygen to produce the most common oxides and energy. Complete combustion occurs when the fuel and oxygen combine in exact proportions to completely burn the fuel

Digestion and Enzymes – APP. Hypothesis: The enzyme‚ Amylase which is used to break down carbohydrates will work the best when heated at 40°C. Also‚ as the temperature increases the reaction rate of amylase increases too. However‚ the reaction rate of amylase will start decreasing when the temperature reaches the enzyme’s optimal temperature. Many enzymes are specific for a certain substrate. For example‚ lipase is a specific enzyme for fat substrates and protease‚ a specific enzyme for protein

Phelps‚ Biology 205 MW 2:10pm. Unknown Organism Paper The unknown organism tested in the Mesa lab was collected from in between the toes of my puppy‚ Riley. The original culture grown consisted of dozens of visibly different organisms of varying colony colors and growth patterns. I chose to test a smaller‚ red colony for my experiments. Based on its gram reaction and oxygen requirements‚ the following tests were performed to reach my presumptive ID: Test Performed Result Gram Stain +

One of the main learning experiences of this lab is to learn the importance of calibrating a sensor. In most cases‚ a sensor will not have an output that is exactly what you need. An example of this is a strain gage. A stain gage gives back a voltage‚ but with that given voltage a distance can be found. Introduction: In this experiment‚ the QNET-MECHKIT was used. This board has multiple compact sensors that can be used for experiments. For this lab we will be using the strain gage to find the

! Affect of pH on Porcine Pancreatic Alpha-Amylase Activity Introduction Proteins function in a variety of different ways‚ and one of their fundamental tasks is to act as enzymes. Enzymes are extremely important in controlling reaction speed (by initiating and regulating biological activity)‚ cell communication‚ and growth. One particularly significant enzyme is amylase‚ which catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha glycosidic linkages of amylose‚ starch components‚ and other oligosaccharides (Qian
