pH Levels and Temperature Water is very important in life. Without water‚ nothing could survive. Water needs to be clean to drink. People all over the world are using filters to clean and purify water. The best type of filter‚ out of dirt‚ cloth‚ and grass‚ is the grass filter (Allen). The grass filter is completely natural‚ therefore it cleans and purifies the water the best. Does a grass filter affect the pH level and temperature of lake and stream water? The temperature of water affects how solubility

Concentration vs Rate of reaction Brandon Introduction A reaction rate is the speed at which a chemical reaction will occur. Heat‚ concentration of a chemical‚ Surface area or a catalyst‚ will affect the rate of reaction. The concentration of a chemical will speed up of the reaction because the reactant particles have become more crowded therefore increasing the chance of productive collisions. In this practical the chemicals will be Sodium thiosulphate and Hydrochloric acid which will produce

more mL of hydrogen peroxide‚ the reaction occurred again. Again‚ small bubbles formed; intensity of (1). The solution did not change in temperature. The reaction lasted about 15 minutes. 3. After adding more manganese dioxide‚ the reaction occurred again. This time‚ the bubbles being formed were larger; intensity of (4). The solution got a little warmer‚ but the difference in temperature was hardly distinguishable by simply touching the test tube. The reaction lasted about 10 minutes. 4. a) The

on the mass of potato Introduction- diffusion is a passive transport where molecules move from areas of higher concentration to areas of low concentrations. Although the molecule ’s movement is random‚ equilibrium is being sought out. Osmosis is a type of diffusion only It involves water. In osmosis water diffuses from the area of high concentration to an area of low concentration‚ to diffuse the more molecule rich side. Because cells have selectively permeable membranes‚ meaning certain substances

Investigating the effect of pH on amylase activity Aim The aim of the experiment is to determine the effects of different pH and the rate of reaction on fungal amylase and starch. Introduction The enzyme amylase is found in the human body‚ it catalyses the hydrolosis of internal glycosidic bonds in polysaccharides‚ the breakdown of starch into sugars. Amylase is present in human saliva‚ where it initiates the chemical process of digestion. Enzymes work best at an optimum pH of 7 which is the bodies

Email: femijohn@gmail.com 43 INTRODUCTION The roles of metal ions in metalloenzymes include direct participation in catalysis‚ stabilization of protein structure and regulation of enzymatic activity. Membrane alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a metal-containing enzyme that serves as a good model for the study of metal ion interactions in enzyme catalysis. Native

Biology “Enzyme Activities” Introduction: Enzymes have extremely interesting properties that make them little chemical-reaction machines. The purpose of an enzyme in a cell is to allow the cell to carry out chemical reactions very quickly. These reactions allow the cell to build things or take things apart as needed. This is how a cell grows and reproduces. At the most basic level‚ a cell is really a little bag full of chemical reactions that are made possible by enzymes (Brain). Laboratory

Written summary The reaction time test that had taken place involved the students to sit at a laptop and press the go button on the screen with their touch pad and wait for the stimulus to appear on the screen. When this stimulus would appear the student would then have to press on their touchpad with their writing hand and the amount of time that it took for the student to react to the stimulus and press the touchpad was the reaction time that was timed. The test was taken 3 times and the average

before plateauing at 25 degrees. But the 3% took almost the whole 7 minutes to finish rising in temperature. So essentially‚ the higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide‚ the faster the reaction will take place. Furthermore‚ the foam (water and oxygen produced by the potatoes catalase reacting with hydrogen peroxide) was a kind of indicator of how the reaction was going. It almost indirectly related to the temperature increase‚ because every time the temperature was rising there also seemed to
