The purpose of this lab is to determine the rate of reaction under different circumstances. Different variables will be manipulated to discover their effects on a particular reaction. Changes in temperature‚ pH‚ and enzyme concentration are examples of factors that have the potential to affect the initial rate of an enzyme catalyzed reaction in a controlled experiment‚ whether it be speeding the reaction up or slowing it down. Part I of the experiment establishes a baseline that can be used to compare

SCH4U7-02 Monday‚ October 21‚ 2013 Designing an Experiment to Investigate Factors Affecting Rate of Reaction Introduction Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)‚ is the most simple peroxide and commonly used in several household items such as toothpaste or as an alternative to bleach. However hydrogen peroxide it is a very dangerous substance when accumulated in large amounts. If that situation occurs this substance must be decomposed. But how can we decompose this reaction? Well it decomposes by itself

The topic is The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of Dissolving. In this experiment‚ the scientist will research how the temperature of water will affect the rate of dissolving of different chemical solutes. The independent variable in this experiment are the different types of solutes used and the different temperatures the solvent will be adjusted to‚ and the dependent variable is the amount of weight of the solvent after the solute has dissolved in it. The constants are the same cups used to

Activity One: 1. The two major variables that affect the rate of diffusion: a. The composition of the lipid bilayer (eg. more cholesterol‚ less permeability to polar substances) b. The structure of the molecule undergoing diffusion (eg. steric conformation‚ size‚ polarity‚ amount and strength of hydrogen bonding) 2. Urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO because the pores of the membrane were too small for the urea to pass through. The molecular weight of urea is 60.06 g/mol‚ over

Investigation of the rate of photosynthesis of pondweed. Research question: How does the concentration of sodium bicarbonate relate to the amount of oxygen produced by Elodea (Canadian pond weed) in the process of photosynthesis? Hypothesis: If there is an increase in concentration of sodium bicarbonate the amount of oxygen produced will increase because the sodium bicarbonate concentration will increase the carbon dioxide levels. Independent variable- Concentrations of sodium bicarbonate (8%

The US has recently reached the lowest unemployment rate： 4.5%. In this article‚ the author provided different aspects of US’s low unemployment rate and the result of such a low unemployment rate. Comparing to the unemployment rate (10%) after 2008’s recession‚ US is now reaching a relatively low unemployment rate. A low unemployment rate is one of the four macroeconomic objectives that economists always want their nations to achieve. Unemployment is simply defined as the state of being out of
