Biology 20 IB Design Lab Does increasing or decreasing the ph level of a 3% concentration H2O2 (l) solution affect the amount of oxygen released between 15.0ml of the solution and a 5g sample of liver? The reaction is measured by the difference in mass of a balloon that is used to capture the amount of gas released by the catalase enzyme found in liver reacting with a basified 3% H2O2 (l) and an acidified 3% H2O2 (l) . Chemical reactions occur when two or more molecules interact and the molecules
