Abstract This experiment is to study and measure the enzyme activity of β-galactosidase in the different concentrations of o-Nitrophenylgalactoside (ONPG) using a spectrophotometer. The spectrophotometer was also set at 420nm‚ a wavelength which is best for recording the absorbance values for the experiment. From the results‚ 0.9mM ONPG solution has the highest absorbance and 0.1mM ONPG solution has the least. Also‚ 0.5mM ONPG solution has the highest rate of enzyme activity and it is the most efficient

Kinetic Expressions (Kinetics) has been taking place at Berea College for 20 years. This year the team celebrated its 20th by revisiting a choreography that was performed at the first Kinetics and were very purposeful of who they allowed to choreograph in this production. This will be a critique of some of the dances performed; it will go into detail about each dance‚ analyze the movements and reveal the message. The opening act to Kinetics this year was the choreography that was performed at

Chemical Kinetic Models Simplified Global Chemical Kinetic Model In order to compare the two reactors used in our experiment‚ a simplified global kinetic model was used to describe the DRM reaction behavior in different plasma reactor. This model was already used by authors in the field of pollutant removal by using a plasma reactor [15‚ 21–23]. It is generally accepted that free radical processes are the main mechanisms in non-equilibrium plasma reaction [21‚ 24-25]. The chemical kinetics model

CHEMICAL KINETICS RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The balanced equation of the reaction between sodium thiosulfate and Hydrochloric acid is: S2O32- (aq) + 2 H+ (aq) SO2 (g) + S (s) +H2O (l) Using beakers with the same diameter was very important in conducting the experiment. If different sizes were used‚ the visibility of the “x” on the paper beneath the beaker could disappear from view too early or too late than the hypothetical time depending on the depth of the solution. It was also significant

Chemical Kinetics‚ A Clock Reaction Abstract The purpose for the experiment Chemical Kinetics‚ a clock reaction is to figure out the reaction rate of a solution regarding its concentration‚ temperature‚ and also determine the effects of when a catalyst is present. The experiment resulted that the concentration‚ as well as its temperature can affect the rate constant inversely the outcome of the rate constant. By conducting the experiment‚ it is also discovered that the rate order of the reaction

Enzyme Kinetics Examples and Problems 1. An enzyme is produced for producing a sun protection lotion. Given kinetic data for the enzyme reaction with Vm=2.5 mmol/m3.s‚ Km=8.9 mM and So=12mM‚ what would be the time required for 95% conversion in a batch reactor? 2. An enzyme was assayed at an initial substrate concentration of 10-5M. The Km’ for the substrate is 2x10-3M. At the end of 1 min‚ 2% of the substrate had been converted to product. a. What % of the substrate will be converted

types of forces involved. Two of the main forces experienced are called potential energy and kinetic energy. Potential energy is the energy an object has depending on the position of it. For example the higher an object is the higher the potential energy is and the lower an object is the less potential energy it will have. Kinetic energy is also a main type of force that is involved with rollercoasters. Kinetic energy is the energy an object will have as it is in motion. There are many different types

Most street barriers are made of hard rubber or plastic materials that easily give in or dent when hit. Why is this so? A. To reduce the vehicle’s kinetic energy when it collides with the barriers B. To store potential energy in the bumpers of vehicles C. To reduce the impact force when hit by a vehicle D. To reduce the impact time when the barriers hit the vehicle 9. What is the momentum of a 20
