Lab Partner: _____________________________________________________________________ Investigating Factors that Affect the Rate of Enzyme Activity See Textbook Pg 61. Enzymes are very large complex organic molecules that are synthesized by the cell to perform specific functions. These biological catalysts are important because they speed up the rate of the reaction that would otherwise be too slow to support life. Catalase is an enzyme present in the cells of plants‚ animals and aerobic (O2

ACIDS AND BASES The reason that acid-base reactions are so important is that many of the things you come into contact with on a daily basis are either acids or bases. Most fruits are acids‚ as are carbonated beverages‚ tea‚ and battery acid. Common household bases include baking soda‚ ammonia‚ soap‚ and antacids. What are acids and bases? There are not one but three common definitions used to describe acids and bases: 1. Arrhenius acids and bases 2. Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases 3. Lewis acids

Factors that Affect the Rate of a Reaction BACKGROUND: Chemical reactions occur at different rates. In this experiment I will consider some of the key factors that influence the rate of a reaction: * nature of reactants - particle size * temperature * 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

Biology coursework: Substrate specificity in yeast AIM: To find out which substrate (glucose‚ starch‚ maltose‚ sucrose or lactose)‚ does yeast‚ the organism containing the enzyme‚ breaks down the quickest. Introduction: Usually‚ every enzyme has a specific substrate that is what we call the “lock and key” theory. We can try the reaction of an enzyme with different substrates and this enzyme will just work well with one of those substrates. One type of reaction catalyzed by enzymes is anaerobic respiration

cell. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the greater the concentration of sulfuric acid the bigger the current of the voltaic cell. In a voltaic cell‚ chemical energy is concerted to electrical though the oxidation and reduction happen on the electrodes. Current will not flow through pure water. There must be electrolytes dissolved in it before electricity can pass through it. When the concentration of sulfuric acid is increased‚ the number of ions is increased. There will be more ion carrying electric

Coursework is something that gives more confidence and higher levels of learning to all the students and even help the teachers in assessing the abilities and the developments taking place in the children. Coursework at times has been proved to act better than the homework and exams for assessing and grading the students on the basis of their performance. The students are given chances to perform better and show the way they can illustrate and demonstrate their abilities and things they have learnt
