Germans‚ימ’’ש ? What is this that’s worth his whole life? A potato. Not even a whole one‚ but half of a potato‚ smuggled out of the kitchen.

Aim To observe and measure the effect of osmosis on the mass of potato using a starch solution. Introduction In order to measure the effect of osmosis‚ eighteen pieces of potato were cut and placed in six groups‚ each group of three pieces cut to weigh as close as possible to one another. For each potato group‚ a test tube was half filled with a starch solution varying in concentration from 0% (water) to 1%. Hypothesis Through osmosis‚ I hypothesise that as the solution of

Potato Catalysis Lab Pre-Lab Assignment Background Information: An enzyme is catalytic protein. It is the most important type of molecule found in living cells. Cells would not be able to function without enzymes. Enzymes speed up or slow down chemical reactions of the cells. It is usually easy to identify the names of enzymes because they end in -ase. The enzyme that acts upon the substrate hydrogen peroxide is usually called catalase. This enzyme is found in both plants and animals

The memory stretches even further back to his grandfather and the hard work he did as a peat harvester (there’s all kinds of hard work going on). Eventually‚ our speaker snaps out of his daydream‚ and we find

foam that can be measured. ANALYSIS QUESTIONS 1. a) Describe the effect of damaging the potato on the catalase activity. With the increased level of damage to the potato‚ there appeared to be more activity within the reaction between the catalase and the H2O2. b) Explain at the cell level why crushing or macerating the potato has this effect. When you crush or macerate the potato‚ you are breaking the cell walls of each individual cell. Once this happens‚ the catalase is

Battery from Potato Introduction: Batteries generate electricity through a chemical reaction between two different electrodes and one electrolyte. Use of Copper and Zinc electrodes and Sulfuric acid as electrolyte is a proven method for this process. We are wondering if we can use any other liquid as electrolyte? This gave us the idea of using a potato as electrolyte. After all a fresh potato has a lot of juice that may serve our purpose as electrolyte. Problem: Can Potato be used to generate
