oxygen released for the cold trial was 38 mL‚ 11 mL less than the control. Conclusion: The hot trial produced the most oxygen of all three trials. Heat tends to increase the rate of chemical reactions‚ explained in the article Temperature Effects (Introduction to Enzymes) by Chris Jamison. “Like most chemical reactions‚ the rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction increases as the temperature is raised. A ten degree rise in temperature will increase the activity of most enzymes by 50 to 100% . Variations

Factors that affect how the PH changes during a titration experiment. Concentration of the alkali Having a higher concentration of alkali will mean that there will be more molecules closer together for the acid to collide with. This will speed up the reaction as collision theory suggests that molecules have to collide to react and if there are more molecules to collide with the reaction will happen faster as there is a higher chance of a collision. Volume of alkali An increase in volume would mean

The rate of photosynthesis in each of the beakers will depend what is wrapped around the beakers such as red and blue cellophane‚ as well as the control of the experiment the beaker without cellophane. The cellophane will directly impact the light getting absorbed as well as the amount of CO2 in the beakers. Which overall as result will determine the final color of the water mixed with bromothymol blue. What was being measured was the color of the water after CO2 has been blown in the beakers. The

Investigating Factors That Affect Rates Of Reaction Aim: How does the mass of calcium carbonate affect its rate of reaction with hydrochloric acid? Hypothesis: I hypothesize that when the mass of the calcium carbonate increases‚ the rate of reaction of the calcium carbonate and hydrochloric will also increase. The collision theory states that the more successful collisions there are within the reaction‚ the faster the rate of reaction. When the mass increases‚ so does the number of particles

Stanford Prison Experiment In discussions of the Stanford Prison Experiment conducted by Philip G. Zimbardo in 1970‚ one controversial issue has been whether or not the experiment should have ever been attempted. On the one hand‚ Dr. Zimbardo and his colleagues argued that the experiment gave them a deeper understanding of human suffering and a greater empathy for their fellow man (Ratnesar 2011). On the other hand‚ one of the former guards contended that the experiment made him more hostile and

Hypothesis: I hypothesis that the enzyme concentration will affect the rate of reaction but only up until a certain point because there is a limited supply of substrate. Enzymes are protein molecule that acts as biological catalyst by increasing the rate of reactions without changing the overall process. They are long chain amino acids bound together by peptide bonds. Enzymes are seen in all living cells and controlling the metabolic processes in which they converted nutrients into energy and new

increased chance of collisions between reactant particles. Since the collisions become more frequent and abundant‚ the rate of reaction increases. Aim The aim of the experiment is to see if a greater surface area of a dissolvable tablet creates a faster or slower reaction Independent Variable The surface area of the tablet (halves‚ powdered and whole) Dependent Variable How fast the rate of reaction is to the surface area Controlled Variables The amount of water (250mL) The type of dissolvable

plant in continuous light‚ then I expect that the plant will grow/ produce less than a plant in a normal amount of light from 6am to 9pm. This experiment was done‚ so that indoor growers know if they need to turn off their grow lights at night‚ or set them on an alarm‚ so that they can get full potential food production. There are many people without food‚ so this would help if one can produce more food. Only one of my trials supported my hypothesis‚ of the plant in normal light will grow more than

Saliva collected at the beginning of experiment was found to have a pH value of 7(neutral) ‚ as expected since the normal pH of saliva is 6 to 7 (Humphrey and Williamson‚ 2001). When testing the enzymatic action of saliva‚ we observed at the end of the experiment‚ that a yellow-red precipitate formed which indicated that sugars were present. The reason that sugars were found and not starch‚ is because saliva contains an enzyme known as salivary amylase which catalyses the breakdown of starch to

use a process called photosynthesis to covert energy from the sun into energy they can use for their activities. The plant’s chloroplasts‚ along with water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and light are the essential elements required for photosynthesis to take place. The “photo” part of photosynthesis is in reference to the fact that the process requires light. The simplest form of the photosynthesis equation is: H2O + CO2 ----light----> (CH2O)N + O2 As shown in the equation‚ photosynthesis produces carbohydrates
