into the second beaker containing the potato catalase for exactly 5 seconds. It was next dried on a paper towel for 5 seconds‚ and finally placed at the bottom of the first beaker‚ which contained hydrogen peroxide solution. The timer was then started. The timer stopped when the paper disk floated up to the top of the beaker. This was performed 3 times. After this‚ two negative controls were tested. The first negative control used a denatured catalase instead of the potato extract. The

SLII The effect of three different pH levels (4‚ 7‚ 10) on the rate of germination of spanish beans Research Question: What is the effect of three different pH levels (4‚ 7‚ 10) on the rate of germination of spanish beans? Independent Variable: The different pH levels in the water would be the independent variable in this lab. Three different pH levels were tested‚ 4‚ 7 and 10‚ both 4 and 10 were chosen because they are 3 pH levels away from 7 which would be the regular pH level of water

II: Titration with a pH Meter 1. Fill the 50-milliliter buret with a 0.25 molar NaOH solution. 2. Record volume. 3. Measure out between 20 milliliters and 40 milliliters of the unknown HCl solution. This amount must be different than the amount used in part I. 4. Record volume. 5. The amount of unknown HCl is then added to the 100-milliliter Erlenmeyer flask. 6. Insert the pH meter into the Erlenmeyer flask and record the initial pH of the acid. Remember to record the pH of the solution after

be affected by changes in something like temperature. A catalyst is a substance which changes the role or speed at which a reaction occurs. The catalyst in our experiment was the enzyme‚ catalase. An enzyme is a specialized protein which catalyzes reactions in cells. The enzyme in our experiment was catalase‚ which came from the potato juice. The function of an enzyme is to catalyze reactions in cells. The specific function of the enzyme in this experiment was to see if it affected the activity

The Effects of pH on Slime Mold Dg Nicole Harris BIOL181 – 059 1 December 2011 The theory that slime mold is attracted to acidic solutions was examined by the slime mold‚ Dg. Dg’s preference of pH was examined by using a variety of pH solutions in a petri dish. The data suggests that the growth of fruiting bodies observed in pH 9 was comparable to that of pH 4.

pH and Microbial Growth Introduction: Each organism has an optimum environment for growth‚ which includes pH level. Organisms that grow at near neutral pH levels are called neutrophiles. Those that grow best in acidic pH values are called acidophiles. Others‚ yet‚ grow best in alkaline pH values and are called alkaliphiles. In this lab‚ each group was assigned an organism‚ which was then used to inoculate 6 different pH levels. Materials and Methods: Followed lab procedure 29‚ “pH and

Ph Lab Report Bryon Kim 123013 B(2) Biology Background information/Research PH paper (litmus paper) determines how acidic or how basic a substance is. The paper changes color accordingly to color code on the pH scale. The pH scale starts from 0 to 14. The lower the number the more acidic it is. Zero is the most acidic‚ and 14 is the most basic while 7 is the neutral number for example water. Examples of an acid is lemon juice or multi purpose cleaner. Examples of a basic substance is shampoo or liquid soap

analyzing pH it measures for the acidity or basicity of a solution. pH levels vary depending on the solution. The more acidic solutions would be juices and vinegar and cleaning materials would be basic. You can determine the purpose of solutions based on their acidity and basicity. We measure the pH of solutions on a scale with levels from 1-14. These levels may change if other solutions are added‚ we can tell what the pH will be based on its colour. Solutions called buffers change the pH levels of

red‚ you felt the effects of an incorrect pH level. pH measures the concentration of hydronium ions and can be modeled by the function p(t) = −log10t. The variable t represents the amount of hydronium ions; p(t) gives the resulting pH level. Water at 25 degrees Celsius has a pH of 7. Anything that has a pH less than 7 is called acidic‚ a pH above 7 is basic‚ or alkaline. Seawater has a pH just more than 8‚ whereas lemonade has a pH of approximately 3. 1) Create a graph of the pH function either by
