EXPERIMENT-1 Pressure-Temperature Relationship for Steam OBJECT: The objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between saturation pressure and saturation temperature of the wet steam. APPARATUS: Pressure-temperature apparatus with pressure gauge and thermometer. [pic] THEORY: In order to determine the relationship between the saturation temperature and pressure of wet steam it is necessary to obtain a number of corresponding values of the

How does temperature affect the rate of reaction for Lipase? As the temperature increases‚ so will the rate of enzyme reaction. However‚ as the temperature exceeds the optimum the rate of reaction will decrease. I predict that at temperatures above 70°C the enzyme lipase will become denatured and at temperatures below 10°C the enzyme will become inactive. Since lipase operates within the human body I’d also predict that its optimum temperature would be around human body temperature which is approximately

Effect of Temperature on Peroxidase Ability to Break Down H2O2 By: Rodneika Crutcher Abstract Temperature affects the ability of peroxidase to break down hydrogen peroxide. In this experiment our professor extracted peroxidase from potato tissue. In order to determine how temperature affects peroxidase we created solutions and measured their absorbance levels after water bath treatments. The more absorbent the solution was the less hydrogen peroxide there was in the solution. This means the peroxidase

Homeostatic Control of Core Body Temperature Our bodies have processes that happen to keep everything at an even rate. If things get out of balance our bodies tries to bring them back into balance. Homeostasis refers to the processes of keeping internal body environment in a steady rate‚ when the external environment is changed. The aim of this essay is to discuss the internal environment‚ the importance of regulation of core temperature‚ negative feedback and positive feedback and contrast

Introduction. The following is an experiment into temperature change in an exothermic reaction taking place between Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and also how the concentration of the acid will vary these results. The characteristics of the reaction feature a neutralisation‚ an energy change (shown as a temperature change) that is usually exothermic (gives out heat). The reaction of neutralisation is exothermic because of the bonds being broken and made in the reaction. When

experiment was to determine the effect of temperature on the rate of movement of Porcellio scaber. Our prediction was that P. scaber would have faster rates of movement in hotter temperatures. We expected this response as P. scaber is an ectotherm. Hence‚ its body temperature is directly determined by the temperature of its environment (Mellanby 1939). Løkke and van Gestel (1998) stated that the rate of the metabolism is controlled by the environmental temperature for ectotherms. As seen by Wieser
