The effect of time on enzyme reaction. Abstract: In this lab investigation we will observe how the amount of hydrogen peroxide is affected by catalase over time. The enzyme was added to 10 mL’s of hydrogen peroxide and observed over time to determine the relation between time and enzyme activity. The hypothesis stated that as time increased substrate would decrease. Therefore I predicted that at 60 seconds‚ there would be the least amount of H2O2. The enzyme activity mirrored my predictions

Introduction What is chemical change? Chemical change is the alteration of a substance into one or more different substances with different properties (also called chemical reaction). The four different types of chemial reations are synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single displacement‚ and double displacement. Synthesis is when atoms and/or molecules combine to form larger molecules. Decomposition is when a large molecules are split into elements or smaller molecules. Single Displacement has an element

This experiment was performed to demonstrate a cycle of chemical reactions involving copper. This lab will start with copper as a reactant in the first reaction through a series of five chemical forms of aqueous phase reactions and ending to calculate the percentage of recovered solid copper as a product in the last reaction of the experiment. The experiment resulted in a percent recovery from the cycle of copper reactions of an increase to 139%. . Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is

Grignard reaction Abstract: In this laboratory‚ triphenylmethanol was synthesised from reacting benzophenone and bromobenzene using Grignard reaction. As the reaction was to set up to produce a Grignard reagent and then recrystallize it to obtain pure sample. The percentage yield obtained was 55% and its melting point was 161 co which is within the literature value 160-163 co. In addition to that the IR spectroscopy confirmed the molecule structure to be triphenylmethanol. Introduction: The Grignard

The Ionic Lattice In most ionic compounds‚ the anions are much larger than the cations‚ and it is the anions which form the crystal array. The smaller cations reside in the holes between the anions. Basic Concepts: 1. Ions are assumed to be charged‚ incompressible‚ nonpolarizable spheres. 2. Ions try to surround themselves with as many ions of opposite charge as closely as possible. Usually in the packing arrangement‚ the cation is just large enough to allow te anions to surround it without

2Fe+3 --> something + 2Fe+2 Equation 2: 8H+ + 5Fe+2 + MnO4- --> 5Fe+3 + Mn+2 + 4H2O Equation 3: 6H+ + 2MnO4- + 5H2C2O4 --> 2Mn+2 + 10CO2 + 8H2O Conclusion: Therefore the concluded reaction would be: NH3OH+ + 2Fe+3 --> N2O + 2Fe+2 This was obtained by using stoichiometry half reactions the product of that reaction was determined to be N2O. Some systematic errors could be if the wrong molarity was determined for the permanganate because then that would though off the calculations for the Fe+2 and

Lab Report: Stoichiometry Lab Oct. 27‚ 2011 Claire Elizabeth Lab Partners: Hannah Signature:___________________ Introduction- Baking soda and vinegar are two common materials found in almost every household. That‚ plus the fact that all the starting and finishing materials are non hazardous and safe‚ is why this is one of the first chemical reactions that many people are exposed to The purpose of this experiment tests which of the two reactants (vinegar and baking soda) is the limited

This lab report will be detailing the steps taken and the results discovered when using spectrophotometry to determine the percentage of copper in a copper-clad penny and the thicknes of the copper layer on the copper-clad penny. After 1982‚ copper coating has been used in the creation of the penny because the cost of pure copper has increase to the point that the amount needed t omake a penny cost far more than the actual value of the penny. This lab allowed us to see just how much copper coating

was synthesis by reacting concentrated hydrochloric acid using nucleophilic substitution sn1. In the substitution reaction the Hydrogen in HCl protonated the alcohol group in t-pentyl alcohol and turned it to a good leaving group (H2O). a tertiary carbon cation was formed. a nucleophilic attach of the negative Cl- attacked the carbon cation forming t-pentyl chloride [7]. As the reaction proceeded‚ extraction and distillation techniques were used to get a pure product of t-pentyl chloride. The percent

Ionic Radius: Definition‚ Calculation‚ and Trends Atoms are microscopic particles that constitute all matter. Despite their tiny size‚ however‚ they can be measured. One way that certain atoms‚ called ions‚ are measured‚ is by ionic radius. The radius is different from an atomic radius and is influenced by the particles’ charges. Use the following information to understand this important measurement in chemistry. What is Ionic Radius? Ionic radius is‚ simply put‚ the radius of an ion. An ion is
