Aim: To find the effect of temperature on enzymes‚ using a potato as a catalyst. The source of catalase is in the potato cells. 2H2O2 → O2 + H2O Planning: Introduction: An Enzyme is any one of many specialised organic substances‚ composed of polymers of amino acids‚ that act as catalysts to regulate the speed of the many chemical reactions involved in the metabolism of living organisms Enzymes are classified into several broad categories‚ such as hydrolytic‚ oxidising‚ and reducing‚ depending

MEASURING pH Date of Lab: 02/09/13 Date Report submitted: 02/26/13 Purpose of the experiment By doing this experiment‚ we were trying to learn how to measure a pH with a pH meter to determine whether a solution is weakly‚ moderately or strongly acidic or basic; but also to compare the different data founded to see how the addition of certain liquid to a solution may affect the pH of the initial solution. Materials We used: * Tap water‚ distilled water‚ Soda and milk as the main

The Effects of pH‚ Temperature‚ Enzyme‚ and Substrate Concentrations on Benzoquinone Production BIOL 2051 June 10th 2013 Introduction Enzymes are the ultimate catalysts of living things. Enzymes are made of proteins which are structured and directed by amino acids chains. Enzymes attract and fit substrate molecules to an active site. The active site binds the substrate molecules covalently to enzyme forming an enzyme-substrate complex‚ which catalyzes

of an enzyme‚ ’-amylase in starch-iodine solution. We will be testing the relationship between enzymatic reaction affected by temperature and pH. Through the testing the enzyme at different temperatures‚ and different pH levels; it would determine at which temperature and pH level the enzyme worked the most efficiently. Analyzing absorbance of the solutions with spectrophotometery will determine the reaction rate. To test the optimal pH‚ the starch and a buffer were combined at a specific pH level

Introduction How does changing the surroundings of enzymes affect their reaction rate? The purpose of the experiment is to determine how different abiotic conditions affect the rate at which enzymes accelerate/cause reactions In this lab students measured the height of the foam after catalysis between catalase (enzyme) and 7 other (solutions) to determine which solution had the fastest reaction rate.. The control variable of the experiment would be the solution of only hydrogen peroxide‚ water

Experiment 20: pH Titration: Phosphoric Acid in Cola Drinks Post-lab Assignment or Report The post-lab report for this experiment is due at the beginning of the following lab period. Student notes for the lab will be available on the lab T-Square site. Learning Objectives Students will be able to... • Use a known mass of solid acid to determine an unknown concentration of a basic solution (this process is called “standardization”). • Execute a titration using good‚ reliable technique.

Question 1 Critique Dr. Honeydew’s report. Specifically‚ discuss what is missing and how the missing information should have been presented. First the PH measurements‚ Dr. honey dew does not explain how the PH device was calibrated or if the blood sample was added or mixed with anything prior to the measuring of the pH (like water‚ etc.). In regards to the absorption spectroscopy‚ the method by which the concentration was obtained is questionable. Was the concentration known before the experiment
