Purpose: To find out the densities and to find out the name of the unknown metals. (Based on the extensive and intensive properties) Check up the words mass‚ volume‚ density‚ extensive properties‚ and intensive properties. Where do the units for mass and volume) come from and what do they mean? What is the density of distilled water? What is Archimedes principle? Does temperature affect the density of a solid? Liquid? Gas? Materials: Safety glasses‚ 10‚ 25 or 50 mL graduated cylinders

Daphny Maldonado Bio Lab 2107 Kiah Britton W 10-12:30 Is H20 Bad for You? Abstract: In the village of Gopher Hollow there’s a cluster of Blue Baby Syndrome. There were four infants affected by this cluster. The families from the infants would collect their water from wells. We have to determine what’s the source of the high levels of nitrites in the water. The four sources that could be the point of contamination are a new subdivision‚ textile plant‚ an organic farm‚ and a mountain lake

Enzymes are biological catalysts and each individual enzyme can only catalyse to one type of reaction – due to its specific shape. Each individual enzyme has its own specific shape which is determined by the amino acid sequence that it is made up of – each enzyme’s active site matches to its unique substrate molecule. For the sake of our experiment – enzymes catalyse reactions because they become an active site for reactions to take place. This lowers the energy that is needed for the reaction but

Determination of the activation energy of an enzyme catalysed reaction Introduction In this practical the aim for this experiment was to find out the catalytic power of alkaline phosphate‚ as well as the rate of reaction and the activation energy of p-nitrophenol phosphate. Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyse a chemical reaction. ‘Enzymes work by lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction making it easier to proceed’ [1]. This allows molecules to have more energy therefore

Catecholase-Catalyzed Reaction Abstract This paper describes an experiment to determine ……………. Introduction Enzymes are made from proteins. They are biological catalysts that speed up the rate of chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy of the reaction. Enzymes are precise and catalyze only detailed reaction. Specificity is an outcome of active site of enzyme that acts on the substrate. Catecholase‚ which catalyzes a reaction in which catechol‚ then catechol becomes the product

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 have to create the best environment that is called active
Premium Enzyme Metabolism Catalysis
Enzymes are biological molecules (proteins) that act as catalysts and help complex reactions occur everywhere in life. Enzymes are catalyst for biochemical reactions; Enzymes lower the activation ATP so a reaction can begin over the energy barriers. In this lab‚ a discussion of the enzymes reaction to heat will be addressed. Does heat speed up the enzyme reaction? The prediction is as more heat is applied more reactions will occur then at some point the heat will denature the enzyme as it reaches
