Part B: Practical Report The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim: To investigate how temperature effects the enzyme catalase. Hypothesis: If the temperature of water is increased then the enzyme will react quicker to form oxygen and water‚ when compared to cold water. Purpose: To design and conduct a plan of a practical about the effects of temperature on enzymatic activity with a partner. Introduction: An enzyme is a protein‚ which speeds up a specific chemical reaction without altering

My topic for the science fair project is "The effect of temperature in energy loss in a basketball". Some of my subtopics for my project include the pressure air and height in a basketball‚ the material a basketball is made out of and the size of the ball. Different sports require different size balls to correspond with the correct bounce it needs to be used during the sport. Thats why you would not be able to use a tennis ball to play basketball because it is too bouncy and a soccer

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON CORROSION OF CERMETS ALLOY ABSTRACT Tungsten carbides (WC) are widely used as wear resistant components such as seal‚ valves‚ rings‚ nozzle and bearings. But in some processing operations‚ the environment necessarily includes severe corrosion or extremes of temperatures. In this research‚ commercially cobalt tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) and nickel tungsten carbide (WC-9%Ni) was examined in seawater (3.5% salinity) to know the effect of temperature on corrosion for both

by using the application of membrane have become highly demand in various industries. In this newly separation process ‚ the membrane function as a semi-permeable barrier and the separation process occur by the membrane controlling the rate of movement of various molecules between two liquid phases ‚ two gas phases or a mixture of a gas phase and liquid phase. In industries‚ many companies have high demand on both quality and quantity of water for production. Membrane process can be used to separate

sugar the mass of beetroot decreased. This happened because water moved from the inside of the beetroot‚ where there was a high water potential into the sugar solution‚ which had a lower water potential. In the other four beakers where the concentration of sugar solution was less‚ the mass of the beetroot increased. This happened because water moved from the dilute sugar solution where there was a high water potential‚ into the beetroot. The percentage increase in the mass of beetroot increased as the

enzyme produced in the inner lining of the abomasum. Renin will solidify milk and makes it curdle. Curdling of milk is essential for the proper digestion of milk proteins in the stomach. (buzzle) Aim: To analyze the effect of temperature on Renin and to find the best temperature for enzyme activity Hypothesis: Renin works the best in which the rate of reaction is at the highest or optimum‚ in 40˚C Materials: • Bunsen burner • Wire gauze • Thermometer • Dropper • Mortar • Pestle •

liquid permeability of porous media. The apparatus used in the experiment is the liquid permeameter. The liquid used in this experiment is water. Three membrane samples of different thickness (0.1‚ 0.2‚ 0.3 cm) are used as the porous media. The determination of the permeability is carried out using elevated pressure test. Each sample is tested for 5 times at different values of pressure gradient which are 5‚ 10‚ 15‚ 20 and 30 psi. In order to obtain more accurate data‚ ensure that the membrane samples

Hypothesis The optimum temperatures of Alcalase and Savinase will be different. Above and below their optimum temperatures activity will decrease. Biological explanation This investigation is designed to look at the effect of temperature on the activity of the proteases Alcalase and Savinase. By the end of it I hope to know the optimum temperature of both proteases. The substrate I am going to use during the experiments is the protein gelatin‚ which is a translucent‚ colourless‚ brittle solid

To investigate the effect of different caffeine concentration on the heartbeat rate of Daphnia at room temperature. Introduction: Caffeine is found‚ and produced in many plant species to function as a natural pesticide‚ and as an inhibitor of seed germination of other nearby coffee seedlings to give it a better chance of survival. Caffeine is able to paralyze and kill certain insects upon feeding on the plants that produce caffeine. Coffee‚ tea and cocoa are common caffeine-containing

MIP experiment on the melting temperature of different polymers 8.1 Compare and comment on the results obtained. LDPE has the lowest average melting temperature (103.6°C) out of the 4 polymers. It is because LDPE is a linear polymer that has a branched structure which is able to expel the applied heat faster through the “branches” and melt faster. HPDE has the second lowest average melting temperature (139.5°C) out of the 4 polymers. Unlike LDPE‚ HDPE does not have a branched structure and the
