Paperose Lab- Introduction to Enzymes Ms. Kim/Honors Biology Purpose To Determine the rate of an enzyme reaction using a “modeled” enzyme and sugar‚ paperase and paperose. Introduction In this lab‚ your hands are the enzyme‚ paperase. This enzyme split the sugar‚ paperose‚ into subunit A and subunit B. You will split this molecule by ripping the paper model down the middle. Materials Paperose models‚ scissors‚ plastic bag‚ container (large plastic cup)‚ stopwatch‚ Procedure 1. Each

Making an Activity Series of Metals using different Solutions Purpose/ Hypothesis: The purpose of this lab was to clearly identify the reactivity of magnesium‚ zinc and copper. The metals reactivity will be exemplified as it will be tested with different solutions such as zinc sulfate (ZnSO4)‚ copper sulfate (CuSO4)‚ hydrochloric acid (HCL)‚ magnesium sulfate (Mg2SO4)‚ iron (II) sulfate (FeSO4) and tin (II) chloride (SnCl2). This will allow us in creating an activity series to visually see the reactivity

Lab 5 Oxidation of an alcohol CHM2123 Introduction: Oxidation is a key reaction in organic chemistry. Oxidation of an alcohol can produce aldehydes‚ ketones‚ or carboxylic acids. One of the methods of oxidation is an aldol reaction through carbon-carbon bonds. The oxidation oxidizes primary alcohols to aldehydes and secondary alcohols oxidizes ketones. Tertiary alcohols are converted to the common oxidizing agents. Scheme 5.1: Aldehydes can be oxidized easily to carboxylic acids in aqueous medias

Oxidation Number When elements combine to produce a compound‚ each element is assigned an “apparent” charge. This apparent charge‚ the charge an atom would have if both electrons in each bond were assigned to the more electronegative element‚ may be positive or negative. It is called the oxidation number or state of the element in the compound. Oxidation numbers are very useful in keeping track of what happens to electrons when various elements combine to form compounds. By remembering a few

Catalytic reduction of hexacynoferrate (III) The silver nanoparticles were used in the catalytic electron transfer reaction between hexacyanoferrate (III) and sodium borohydride‚ resulting in the formation of hexacyanoferrate (II) ions and dihydrogen borate ions. The redox reaction is depicted as: [BH4] - + 8[Fe (CN) 6] -3 + 3H2O H2BO3 - + 8[Fe (CN) 6] -4+ 8H+ The reaction can even proceed without a catalyst‚ but it has been reported that it is a slow reaction‚ which follows zero-order

Research Question: How will an increase of FeSO4 concentration affect the activity of the enzyme catalase? Hypothesis: By increasing the concentration of FeSO4‚ there will be a decrease in the activity of the enzyme catalase because the Iron (ii) in the metallic ion will act as an inhibitor during the catalysis of the hydrogen peroxide into O2 and H2O. Introduction: We rely on oxygen to provide us with energy (ATP) and go through all the phases of aerobic respiration. However‚ oxygen can be

QUESTIONS 1. What are other sources of glycogen? Of starch? a. Other sources of glycogen- Aside from the liver‚ it can also be found in skeletal muscles (for energy during strenuous exercise). It also occurs in tissues including adipose tissues‚ heart muscles‚ kidneys and the brain. It is also found in yeast‚ bacteria‚ fungi‚ molds and algae‚ oysters‚ and shellfish. b. Other sources of starch- Foods that are high in starch include breads‚ grains‚ cereals‚ pasta‚ rice‚ potatoes‚ peas

LAB: Substrate Concentration Affecting the Rate of Enzyme Activity: Through the Experiment of Beef Liver Puree and Hydrogen Peroxide Research Question Does different amount of substrate affect the rate of enzyme activities? Purpose To examine how different types of concentration (Hydrogen Peroxide) affect the rate of enzyme activity. Hypothesis We believe that if there is more substrate concentrated‚ then there will be an increase in the rate of enzyme activity. This is because
