Experiment 16: Kinetics: The Iodine Clock Jane Smith Purpose: The objective of this experiment was for students to apply their knowledge of kinetics and rate laws in order to determine the rate of a chemical reactions‚ activation energy‚ and frequency factors of those reactions. Specifically‚ this experiment was performed using a series of solutions with varying concentrations of KI‚ Na2S2O3‚ and (NH4)2S2O3 . Students recorded time elapsed to observe physical evidence of a reaction taking place

EXTRACTION OF INVERTASE FROM YEAST AND EFFECT OF pH ON ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY Jenelle C. Faustino‚ John Gambit B. Garcia‚ Fatima S. Jusay‚ Oliver Alexander B. Lao and Eunice L. Licudine Group 4 2 E Medical Technology Biochemistry Laboratory ABSTRACT Enzymes are substances that are produced by living organisms and act as catalysts in order to speed up or chance a chemical reaction without changing itself at the end of the reaction. Invertase was extracted first from baker’s yeast. Determination

Enzyme Lab Using Jello INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are known as protein catalysts. The name protein catalyst suggests that most enzymes are made of proteins. A catalyst is a substance that speeds up chemical reactions without being consumed in the process. (Giuseppe‚ M 2002‚ p.69). After a reaction has been catalyzed‚ the catalyst can be used again to catalyze the same reaction. Enzymes reduce the activation energy (minimal energy) it takes for a reaction to take place. Enzymes can either catabolize

A KINETIC STUDY OF AN IODINE CLOCK REACTION PURPOSE To investigate the kinetics of the reaction that occurs between iodide and persulfate ion. You will: (1) determine the rate law‚ (2) determine the numerical value of the rate constant at room temperature‚ (3) explore the effect of temperature on the reaction and determine the activation energy (Ea)‚ and (4) investigate catalytic activity of selected metal ions on the reaction. INTRODUCTION Reaction times vary from picoseconds (10-12 seconds)

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

For this experiment‚ we started off by taking tubes numbered 1-4 and started adding one scoop of our enzyme catalyst‚ in this case‚ the yeast. We then proceeded to measure and add 1 mL of distilled water to test tubes A-D. To get a more accurate measure of 1 mL of distilled water‚ we used the dropper labeled “W” to drop distilled water into the 5 mL graduated cylinder until we saw that the bottom of the water line reached closely to 1 mL. Next‚ we took the four tubes with the scoop of yeast and

milk Introduction Enzymes are globular protein‚ responsible for most of the chemical activities of living organisms. They are made up of long chains of amino acids containing carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen and nitrogen (Gunsch‚ 2012). The role of enzyme is to act as catalysts‚ substances that speed up chemical reactions without being chemically altered during the process. The speeding up of chemical reactions is done by lowering the activation energy required to start a reaction. Enzymes are specific in
