Chemical reactions are a part of everyday lives. Whether it is the burning of propane at a kitchen stove‚ or washing detergent reacting with dirt stains‚ chemical reactions are useful tools that have widespread applications. With so many reactions assisting our everyday activities‚ it is important that ways to optimise reaction rates are investigated. “Reaction rate‚ the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds… may be defined in terms of the amounts of the reactants consumed or products formed

Enzyme Controlled Reactions 1) Describe the relationship between substrate concentration and the initial reaction rate of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Is this a linear relationship? What happens to the initial reaction rate as substrate concentration increases? A) The relationship between the substrate concentration and the initial reaction of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction is very productive‚ but is dramatically affected by the pH level of the given solution. The most productive pH level is

Introduction The heart is an extremely important organ in the human body‚ and it must be able to adjust the heart rate for when a person is resting or for when a person is running. Heart rate is defined as the number of heartbeats per unit of time‚ usually per minute (Medicine-Net). The heart rate is based on the number of contractions of the ventricles. The pulse is defined as a bulge of an artery from waves of blood that course through the blood vessels each time the heart beats (Medicine-Net)

The progress of the reaction was monitored in my case using two TLC plate. It first started off with the spotting of Standard benzoin and benzil which were provided in the lab and followed by the addition of the reaction mixture at once it starts changing colour/boiling‚ then at 10 and 20 mins into the reflux. Once all the necessary steps were spotted‚ the TLC plate was placed in in a beaker containing CH₂Cl₂(methylene chloride)‚ which was used as the developing solvent in this experiment. To check

heart rate to speed up‚ decrease‚ or stay the same‚ the volume of sound has a high effect on the heart. However‚ if people will let down the volume of sound‚ others would not be mannered by the increase in volume managing to the deadly heart attack. Sound within the community‚ for instance‚ traffic can cause a human’s heart rate of increase. Problem of heartbeat tends to be solved by seeing what kind of sound causes the increase of heart rates to place a termination to increase of heart rate. If

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

In this lab my group and I tested to see how yeast would react to different substances. Yeast is a fungi that releases carbon dioxide which can be used in the process of bread making. During this lab we used sugar‚ warm water‚ cornstarch‚ yeast‚ a gas sensor‚ plastic cylinders‚ and a laptop. The process of this lab was to create cellular respiration‚ which is what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. When yeast and a certain substance were combined‚ this substance

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
