Name Date Lab: Denisty – Solids and Liquids Part 1: Density Background Information: The density of an object is how much “stuff”‚ or molecules‚ a substance is made of. Density is how tightly packed the molecules are. To calculate the density of a substance we need to know the mass (weight) of the substance and the volume (how much space) of the substance. Mass is determined by weighing an object. Volume of regular shaped objects is calculated by measuring

(4) Christy Chan (5) BIOLOGY LAB REPORT Investigation of the effect of metal ions on enzyme activity Objective To study the effect of two heavy metal ions‚ lead (II) ions and silver ions on the enzyme activity of invertase. Introduction Hypothesis: The rate of enzyme reaction of invertase decreases and the reaction eventually stops as the heavy metal ions inhibit the enzyme reactions. Biological principle: Heavy metal ions are non-competitive inhibitors. They do not compete with the substrates
