Abstract: After reviewing the basics of enzymes and catalysis‚ we take a dive into the wonderful world of catalase. Beginning with establishing a base line of just how much hydrogen peroxide there is in 5.0mL of the reacted solution; to figuring out exactly how much actually reacted after 300 seconds of catalyzed reaction. Follow the experiment from the beginning steps right to the end as you see where the students went wrong‚ interpretation of the results‚ and great answers to work sheet

The Effect of pH on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysis of Catalase Objectives: The objective of this lab was to develop a protocol to investigate the effect of an environmental variable on the catalytic function of an enzyme. More specifically‚ the objective was to perform an experiment in order to test the effect of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts for reactions. This simply means that enzymes lower the activation energy required

Patrick McCrystal Enzymes: Natural Catalysts Enzymes are catalytic proteins‚ meaning they speed up chemical reactions without beingused up or altered permanently in the process. Although various enzymes use different methods‚all accomplish catalysis by lowering the activation energy for the reaction‚ thus allowing it tooccur more easily. Enzymes have very specific shapes (conformations). Part of the conformationis the active site of the enzyme‚ where the actual catalysis occurs. The specific molecule

Potato Enzyme Lab Enzymes are protein catalysts that speed up chemical reaction in living organisms. The purpose of this lab was to; observe the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide toxin by potato’s enzyme catalase‚ determine factors that influence how quickly the reaction takes place‚ and determine factors that influence how well enzymes function. The first test‚ we were supposed to see what would happen when we add sand in hydrogen peroxide. We filled a test tube with 5mL hydrogen peroxide and we added

Enzyme activity The introduction is a statement of the subject and objectives of the experiment and presents your hypothesis. Relevant background information (appropriately referenced) is given in sufficient detail that a person unfamiliar with the topic can understand the nature of the experiment. A good introduction is clear and concise. Carbohydrates and proteins should be explained in terms of their structure and major functions in cells. Your intro should end with a brief overview of the amylase

Effects of Using Laptops in Classroom Laptop‚ a personal computer that is designed for mobile use and small and light enough to sit on a person’s lap while in use‚ has been well developed in technology. Because the use of computer or a laptop has been exceedingly increased as time passes‚ Manufactures bring out items such as netbook or iPad‚ and try to come with better technology to make it more efficient for people to carry around and use it. This also increased many college students to use

Broadly speaking‚ enzymes are proteins that is produced to perform as a biological catalyst in chemical reactions. Catalyst are used to increase the rate of a chemical reaction. In this study‚ we performed two different experiments that investigated the effect of varying substrate concentration‚ and the effect of temperature on the rate of Enzyme-Catalase reaction. In experiment one (i.e. the effect of varying substrate concentration on the rate of enzyme-catalase reaction) we tested the hypothesis

Investigate Concentration of Substrate on Catalase enzyme 1. Aim/Prediction. Aim of this experiment is to investigate concentration of substrate on catalase enzyme‚ as well to see how they work in different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Prediction would be‚ that the filter paper discs that were used‚ will rise up to the surface in a time in the tube of different concentration of hydrogen peroxide. And in different concentrations the time will be different. As higher the concentration
