The purpose of laboratory assignment 3 was to measure the rate at which a chemical reaction takes place. For the purpose of this lab we measured the rate a balanced oxidation/reduction reaction between iodine‚ hydrogen‚ and bromate ion occurs. The above reaction occurs slowly so we used a coupled iodine clock reaction to measure the rate of the oxidation/reduction reaction because it occurs much faster but is still dependent upon the other reaction. To accomplish this‚ two mixtures were prepared in

larger molecules such as proteins and polysaccharides(starch) that have dimensions significantly greater than the pore diameter of the dialysis tubing can pass through the tubings and they are retained inside the tubings.Smaller molecules such as water molecules and iodide ions are small enough to pass through the pores. The left-handed dialysis tubing contains 20%sucrose and iodine solution .The right-handed dialysis tubing contained 5% starch solution . The two entire dialysis tubings are submerged

pills. Should you? In the United States today many people have supposedly lost weight with certain pills. One of these pills is called carb cutter. Carb Cutter claims to inhibit the activity of the starch-digesting enzyme‚ amylase. When the diet pill binds to the amylase‚ it prevents the breakdown of starch. In the Biology 1103 lab‚ we conducted two experiments to determine whether or not the diet pill‚ Carb Cutter‚ actually worked. In each experiment we used an experiment tube and a control (blank)

bacteria. The starch hydrolysis test is used to determine the ability to hydrolyze starch. Bacteria use amylase‚ an extracellular enzyme to hydrolyze bonds linking the glucose subunits. Starch is detected by adding iodine to the medium. If the bacteria growing on the starch agar produce amylase‚ no color change will be seen around the bacterial growth because all of the starch is consumed. The absence of a color change is a positive test. Materials needed to perform this test include a starch agar plate
