Enzymes are responsible for multiple reactions that take place naturally in the living organisms. The purpose of the enzymes lab was to investigate how the enzymes play a role in a reaction‚ affecting the rate of reaction (ROR). Interestingly‚ we tested how the enzymes affect the reaction rate at multiple temperatures (0‚ 23‚ 37‚ 50‚ 70‚ and 95 C). It was predicted that an increase in temperature will elevate the thermal activity of substrate which increases the chances the substrate molecules will

was higher than the actual melting point of pure aspirin; 135°C. The phenol test showed that the product is not a pure aspirin by expressing purple color. TLC results weren’t high enough to conclude that the product was a pure aspirin. Overall‚ the lab wasn’t successful due to the low percentage of aspirin that were produced. Out of 2.0 grams of aspirin‚ only 0.7862 grams of pure aspirin were produced. So the percent yield was only 39%. Errors could be made during filtration process and the melting

multiple variables were tested in specific concentrations; that test the reaction rates of the enzyme catalase over a fixed period of time. The major conclusion was that catalase reacts faster in warm temperatures that are neither freezing nor boiling‚ catalase performs well in lower concentrations than the substrate‚ and catalase prefers neutral pH levels around 7. Introduction Enzymes are proteins that catalyze metabolic reactions vital for the survival and functioning of cells [1]. Without enzymes

Taking an unknown compound and identifying it by purifying it from its impurities through the use of hot gravity filtration. Then to determine the unknown you were to take the melting point. An unknown compound was recrystallized from hot water to produce 0.99 grams (67% recovery)

specific heat of solids 1. Introduction Heat capacity of a body is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the body by 1oC. The specific heat of a substance is the heat capacity per unit mass. Thus‚ heat capacity = mass x specific heat. The specific heat is essentially a measure of how thermally insensitive a substance is to the addition of energy. Heat and temperature are really different quantities. Heat is a quantity of thermal energy‚ while temperature determines the

October 18‚ 2011 Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For an example‚ “amylase

Physics Lab Report Format General Remarks: Writing a lab report is the only way your TA will know what you have done during the lab and how well you have understood the process and the results. Part of your lab experience should be learning how to organize and present your work in a scientific way. There is no framework that can be used as a “one size fits all”‚ therefore this sample lab report should only be used as an example. Any lab report should have the following features:
