purpose of this experiment is to study how enzyme activity is affected by environmental conditions. Researchers tested the level of potato extract enzyme activity with 1-11 pH‚ varying temperature‚ catechol solution‚ hydroquinone solution‚ and different measurements of catechol. In Figure 1A and 1B‚ pH levels were tested with potato extract to see how pH would affect the amount of Benzoquinone is formed in the potato. Although it was hypothesized that enzymes would form Benzoquinone better in acidic

Determination of the activation energy of an enzyme catalysed reaction Introduction In this practical the aim for this experiment was to find out the catalytic power of alkaline phosphate‚ as well as the rate of reaction and the activation energy of p-nitrophenol phosphate. Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyse a chemical reaction. ‘Enzymes work by lowering the activation energy of a chemical reaction making it easier to proceed’ [1]. This allows molecules to have more energy therefore

Abstract Enzymes are proteins that lower the activation energy needed for chemical reactions. The two main environmental factors that can affect the enzyme’s activity are temperature and pH‚ and each enzyme works best at a particular temperature and pH. The purpose of this enzyme kinetic experiment was to observe the effect of temperature and pH on the reaction of barley alpha-amylase enzyme with starch substrate and establish the optimum temperature and pH for this reaction. The optimum temperature

chemical reactions take place over time‚ and because of its vast utilization in a multitude of industries‚ it may be one of the most significant and fascinating aspects in the entire chemical world. One application of the study of kinetics can be applied to the determination of the rate of a chemical reaction involving a certain selection of chemicals (FD&C Blue #1 and sodium hypochlorite). The purpose of the proceeding experiment is to make such a determination‚ as well as determining the rate law

Biology “Enzyme Activities” Introduction: Enzymes have extremely interesting properties that make them little chemical-reaction machines. The purpose of an enzyme in a cell is to allow the cell to carry out chemical reactions very quickly. These reactions allow the cell to build things or take things apart as needed. This is how a cell grows and reproduces. At the most basic level‚ a cell is really a little bag full of chemical reactions that are made possible by enzymes (Brain). Laboratory
