    Reaction of catalase with hydrogen peroxide AIM: I aim to find the rate of reaction between catalase and hydrogen peroxide. Enzymes such as Catalase are protein molecules that are found in living cells. They are used to speed up specific reactions in the cells. Each enzyme just performs one particular reaction so they are all very specific. Catalase enzymes found in living cells e.g. in yeast‚ potato or liver‚ speed up (in our case) the breaking down of hydrogen peroxide. The lock and key analogy…

    Determination of the Enthalpy for Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Objective: To construct a coffee cup calorimeter‚ measure its calorimeter constant‚ and determine the enthalpy of decomposition and formation of hydrogen peroxide. Background: This experiment is a classic thermodynamics lab. In it‚ we attempt to measure the enthalpy (H) of a chemical reaction. The main obstacle is that this is a quantity that cannot be measured directly. It instead is observed as heat from one substance is transferred

    Hydrogen Peroxide & Inorganic Peroxy Compounds Hydrogen Peroxide Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the simplest peroxide (a compound with an oxygen-oxygen single bond). It is also a strong oxidizer. Hydrogen peroxide is a clear liquid‚ slightly more viscous than water. In dilute solution‚ it appears colorless.  Reactions Decomposition Hydrogen peroxide decomposes exothermically into water and oxygen gas spontaneously: 2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O2 This process is thermodynamically favorable. It has

    Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide February 22‚ 2007 Chem. 1130 TA: Ms. Babcock Room 1830 Chemistry Annex PURPOSE OF THE EXPERIMENT Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide The major purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate law constant for the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide. In this experiment‚ the goal will be to try to measure the rate law constant at low acidity‚ since at low acidity‚ anything less than 1.0 x 10-3M‚ the effect of the hydrogen ion is negligible. To calculate

    An investigation to compare the reaction rates between potato and hydrogen peroxide against liver and hydrogen peroxide through loss in mass. Background information: Catalase is an enzyme that is found in all cells. This means that it is an intracellular enzyme. And enzyme is a biological catalyst. A catalyst is some thing that speeds up a reaction without being changed itself. Because of this enzymes and catalysts can be used again and again. Enzymes are protein chains that have a primary‚ secondary

    The purpose of this experiment was to determine the speed at which a reaction took place between an iodine and hydrogen peroxide solution. In addition to a change in concentration‚ a change in temperature and a catalyst variable was also introduced to conclude whether or not their presence affected the overall speed of the reaction. In order to determine the effects of these variables‚ several iodine and hydrogen peroxide reactions were prepared‚ (all at varying temperatures‚ volumes‚ and concentrations)

    of this study was to test the rate of reactivity of the enzyme catalase on hydrogen peroxide while subject to different concentrations of an inhibitor. The hypothesis was that hydrogen peroxide will be broken down by catalase into hydrogen and oxygen‚ where a higher concentration of inhibitor will yield less oxygen‚ resultant of a lower rate of reaction. Crushed potato samples of equal weight were placed in hydrogen peroxide solutions of various temperatures. The results showed that less gas was produced

    Effects of Different Concentration of Catalyse on Hydrogen Peroxide Aim: In this investigation I will try to find how long it takes for the filter paper disc to rise up whilst varying the amounts of concentration of catalyse. Prediction: I predict that the lower the concentration of catalyse the longer it will take for the filter paper disc to rise to the surface of the tube. Equipment: 1. Hydrogen peroxide in a container 2. Flat bottom tube 3. Tweezers 4. Filter paper

    Purpose: To determine the reaction order with respect to crystal violet dye. Procedure: Turn on a Spectronic 20 and warm it up for at least 15 minutes. Be sure the wavelength is set to 540nm. When the instrument has warmed up‚ use a clean small test tube from the drawer filled 2/3 with the first NaOH solution that is planned to use‚ as a blank set 0% and 100% transmittance. Take a %T reading every minute for at least 15 minutes so it may be convenient to wait until the room clock’s second

    Determination of Rate and Order of a Reaction Results This experiment used a spectrometer to find the wavelength with maximum absorbance in a green food coloring solution. For this particular solution the wavelength was 629.7 nm. The system was then calibrated to that and was set to measure the food coloring and bleach solution. The measured visible light absorbance of the mixed solution was collected over a time of 200 seconds and eight points were then selected and placed into the Absorbance
