Effect of Temperature ( C ͦ) on Enzyme Catalase Activity in potato Aim: To investigate the Effect of temperature (10‚ 37‚ 60) Celsius (C ͦ) on enzyme catalase activity in potato using 2% of hydrogen peroxide (H202) as the substrate measuring the height (cm) of oxygen gas (bubbles) and calculating the volume of oxygen bubbles produced (cm3) Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up metabolic reactions without being affected. They lower the activation energy needed to start

Aim: To find the effect of temperature on enzymes‚ using a potato as a catalyst. The source of catalase is in the potato cells. 2H2O2 → O2 + H2O Planning: Introduction: An Enzyme is any one of many specialised organic substances‚ composed of polymers of amino acids‚ that act as catalysts to regulate the speed of the many chemical reactions involved in the metabolism of living organisms Enzymes are classified into several broad categories‚ such as hydrolytic‚ oxidising‚ and reducing‚ depending

Aim: The aim of the experiment is to test the effect temperature has on the activity of the enzyme rennin. Hypothesis: I believe the rate of reaction will speed up as the temperature increases until it reaches about 37oC‚ which is the body temperature‚ where it will begin to slow down and stop reacting. I believe this will occur because enzymes have a temperature range at which they work best in and once the temperature goes out of this range the enzyme will stop working. Introduction:Enzymes are

IB Chemistry Lab Report Design Example— Effect of Temperature on Solubility of Potassium Chloride in Water Research question How does temperature affect the solubility of potassium chloride in water? Hypothesis As the temperature of water increases‚ the particles of solid Potassium chloride‚ KCl‚ which are absorbing energy from its surrounding‚ start moving more easily between the solution and its solid state because. According to the second law of thermodynamics‚ the particles will

This study focuses on the effect that temperature has on the enzyme amylase. Enzymes are composed of proteins and acts as a catalyst to speed up the rate of a specific chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. Reactions do not need enzymes to occur‚ but the human body and other living organisms depend on the use of enzymes in order for biochemical reactions to happen in milliseconds. Each enzyme contains a distinct three dimensional structure which is related to its particular function

Effects of Temperature and pH on Catalase Activity INTRODUCTION Enzymes are organic catalysts that spur metabolic reactions. The presence of an enzyme within a cell is essential in order for any sort of reaction to take place. All enzymes are complex proteins that act in an organism’s closely controlled internal environment. In such a homeostatic environment‚ the temperature and the pH (concentration of hydrogen ions)‚ remain within a fairly narrow range. Extreme variations in pH and temperature

Record the ammeter reading as the temperature increases 10°C before disconnecting the wire from the circuit and measuring the wire resistance immediately using the ohm meter. 4. Repeat procedure 4 when the temperature of the wire increases every 10°C until the highest temperature is reached and the measurements are recorded. Conclusion The hypothesis that when the temperature of a wire

MIC Practical Report Kerry Haarhoff 18 April 2012 3150540 Introduction Bacteria and fungi are both micro-organisms‚ however‚ fungi are spore-producing organisms whereas bacteria are not and fungi can be multicellular and bacteria is only a unicellular organism. These 2 micro-organisms‚ along with many other things circulate in the air within our environment. These micro-organisms then settle and become more prevalent in different areas. An experiment was conducted to see where

What effect does temperature have on the oxygen production of enzymes in an animal’s liver? A temperature which is too high would be able to produce little to no oxygen because of the extreme temperature. Just like a temperature too high‚ a temperature which is too low would also produce little to no oxygen for the same reason. Animals that have livers are considered warm-blooded‚ with very warm temperatures; therefore it would make sense for a warm temperature to produce the most oxygen; but one
