Reaction Rates of Barley Alpha Amylase with Starch at Specific pH ’s and Temperatures Page 1 Abstract Enzyme ’s are used as catalysts in certain reactions. They help lower the activation energy needed for the reaction to go to completion. At optimum temperature and pH the amount of collisions of substrate and enzyme is at its highest‚ any deviation from the optimum temperature and pH will result in the denaturization of the enzyme. The purpose of this experiment is to find the optimum

Polymerization reaCTIONS polymers are high-molecular-weight compounds‚ fashioned by the aggregation of many smaller molecules called monomers. Ex. plastics that have so changed society and the natural and synthetic fibers used in clothing are polymers. Classification of polymers Homopolymers - consist of repeated long chains or structures of the same monomer unit. Ex. PVC(polyvinyl chloride) Copolymers - polymers that consist of more than one molecule. Trimers - molecules consisting

January 23rd‚ 2013 Generation of Hydrogen Gas Abstract Hydrogen gas was produced from a reaction in a eudiometer between a weighted amount of magnesium ribbon and 5ml of diluted 6M hydrochloric acid. The partial pressure of the hydrogen gas produced was calculated using Dalton’s Law of partial pressure. With this partial pressure value along with known values in the experiment the number of moles of hydrogen gas produced could be calculated using the ideal gas law equation and this experimental

Aspects of Development‚ Sequence and Rate. Introduction As practitioners working with children‚ there is a great deal that must be known‚ it is important that there is an understanding of the different aspects of development and also a greater understanding between the sequence of development and rate of development and why the difference of the two is important. The physical growth and development growth of children underpins other aspects of their development‚ the two go hand in hand and

VARYING EFFECTS OF ENZYME CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATES OF MALATE DEHYDROGENASE CELL BIOLOGY 13 NOVEMBER 2007 Enzymes are biological catalysts. They are proteins that speed up reactions with low concentrations. These enzyme proteins are made up of linkages of amino acids. The links coil‚ and coil again forming a tertiary structure. This structure has a groove in it called an active site. The active site is

news". The jobless rate in the 17-member currency bloc was 10.7 per cent in January‚ up from 10.6 per cent in December‚ according to statistics published today by Eurostat. It means that‚ in January‚ there were 16.9 million people out of work in the eurozone. Meanwhile in the European Union as a whole‚ unemployment increased from 10 per cent in December to 10.1 per cent in January‚ leaving 24.3 million people without a job. Spain continued to suffer the highest jobless rate in the eurozone at

aim to find out the order of reaction with respect to [H2O2] and [2I-]. I aim to find out the activation enthalpy of the reaction by finding the rate of reaction at different temperatures using the Arrhenius Equation. The experiment will go as follows: Into a conical flask put 15cm3 of distilled water and add 2cm3 of [X]moldm-3 potassium iodide (KI) solution and 1cm3 of 2moldm-3 sulphuric acid. Then add to this 2.5cm3 of 5vol (0.42moldm-3) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). For the second part

non-spontaneous chemical reaction. During electrolysis‚ hydrogen atoms (H2) are reduced at the cathode whereas the oxygen atoms (O2) are oxidized at the anode. There were three different solutions used in the experiment in order to have a better understanding of electrolysis reactions. From each solution‚ reaction equations were produced. The reactions could be observed from the indicators used. The reactions showed that hydrogen ions were produced at the anode‚ making it acidic and hydroxide ions were produced

EXPERIMENT NO. 5 COMMON ION EFFECT Lopez‚ Pauline G. HIJ-2‚ Group No. 5‚ Ms. Jervee M. Punzalan Ramales‚ Ayane Mark Q. September 15‚ 2014 I. ABSTRACT The common ion effect involves how the solubility of a salt changes when some ion that is common to both added substance and the salt in question is introduced. The presence of a common ion hinders the ionization of a weak acid or a weak base hence this is known as the common ion effect. Simply put‚ the effect
