What observations and conclusions can you note about each of the three reactions that occurred in the test tubes where you combined potassium iodide‚ KI‚ and hydrogen peroxide‚ H2O2 (in part 1) of the experiment? (Give a detailed explanation of any observations that you made‚ i.e.‚ what made the colour change‚ what reactions happened?) ANSWER: 2. Use the information below to develop the necessary calculations

Commonly used antiseptics for skin cleaning include benzalkonium chloride‚ chlorhexidine‚ hexachlorophine‚ iodine compounds‚ mercury compounds‚ alcohol and hydrogen peroxide. Other agents which have been used for this purpose‚ but have largely been supplanted by more effective or safer agents‚ include boric acid and volatile oils such as methyl salicylate (oil of wintergreen.)

Iodine clock reaction This is the hydrogen peroxide/ potassium iodide ‘clock’ reaction. A solution of hydrogen peroxide is mixed with one containing potassium iodide‚ starch and sodium thiosulfate. After a few seconds the colourless mixture suddenly turns dark blue. This is one of a number of reactions loosely called the iodine clock. It can be used as an introduction to experiments on rates / kinetics. 63 Lesson organisation This demonstration can be used at secondary level as an introduction

Catalysis Lab: Laboratory Write Up Problem/Question: What happens to the amounts of gas produced in a catalyzed reaction of Hydrogen Peroxide when the catalyst is mixed with an acid? Theory/Hypothesis: In this experiment the researcher and their team will be performing tests on a catalyst (proteins found in potato) to see what will happen when the catalyst in a Hydrogen Peroxide reaction is treated with an acid before the reaction occurs. The researcher hypothesizes that the after treating the catalyst

acidification is found to cause loss of viability of probiotic bacteria. Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus produces sufficient hydrogen peroxide to display inhibition of probiotic. Accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in growth media can happen because lactobacilli do not have catalase enzyme responsible for degradation of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. Hydrogen peroxide and other toxic oxygenic metabolites such as superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical can react with other components eventually

speeds the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. Catalase is present in every plant and animal organ. This is useful because hydrogen peroxide is harmful to cells. Temperature effects the enzyme effectiveness. Increase in temperature causes molecules to move faster. Too high of a temperature will cause an enzyme to denature. The enzyme loses its original shape and the active sight will no longer cause an reaction. Materials wax pencil 3 clean test tubes catalase hydrogen peroxide ruler Procedure First

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE RATE OF CATALASE REACTION IN HYDROGEN PEROXIDE INTRODUCTION Enzymes function similarly to a lock a key mechanism where only one specific key will work (U and Fischer‚ 1994). An enzyme is a macromolecule that acts to increase the rate of either a substrate breaking down into two or more products‚ or where two substrates join up to form one product (Dundon‚ 2018). These enzymes perform this by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur under normal
