How does water temperature affect the amount of dissolved oxygen? Ⅰ. Introduction Dissolved oxygen is just one of the many ways to measure water quality. It means the volume of oxygen that is contained in water. The amount of dissolved oxygen in water usually determines the quantity of organisms living in that water. Dissolved oxygen levels vary by how much oxygen the water can hold‚ how much oxygen is produced by photosynthesis‚ and how much oxygen is consumed by respiration. If water is too warm

are exposed daily to oxygen (such as fruits‚ vegetables and animals). Background Information The Catalase enzyme in this experiment is known for being less affective the warmer the temperature is. According to “Science fair projects” an enzyme becomes unstable at higher temperatures and the shape of the enzyme changes. The enzyme is also used to remove hydrogen peroxide from clothing in the textile industry. This would make sense because when an enzyme encounters a substrate molecule

Amylopectin The absorbance value(x) read from cuvette containing starch and water represents the total amount of starch-iodine complex. The absorbance value(y) read from cuvette containing starch‚ water and α-amylase at the respective temperature or pH represents the amount of starch-iodine complex which is left after the enzyme has hydrolyzed the starch.In order to get the amount of product;P (maltose and glucose) formed‚ need to subtract the (y) value from the (x) value.

How does lava temperature impact viscosity and velocity? The higher the temperature the lower the viscosity which allows it to develop a smooth surface skin‚ but this is quickly broken up by flow of molten lava‚ it creates a rough‚ clinkery surface. The lower the temperature of the magma the higher the viscosity which allows the lava to travel down the slope. In the group the average velocity was 0.91 cm/s . How the “lava” flowed was in a high viscosity and a low velocity because the “lava” was

point the heat will denature the enzyme as it reaches too high of heat. If an enzyme has been denatured it means the shape has been altered therefore cannot perform its function‚ many factors can cause this including high heat. The hypothesis is if temperature is increased the amount of activity rate will increase. The results for the rate of oxygen production (dependent variable) will increase as the heat increases. The reason is a chemical reaction to the heat gives it energy. Enzyme reactions are important

An experiment to investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction of the Enzyme Trypsin. Aim: This investigation was on the effect temperature has on the rate that the enzyme trypsin hydrolyses its substrate‚ a protein found in milk (casein). This investigation was conducted under controlled conditions‚ the temperature being the changeable variable. Trypsin and its substrate (powdered milk which is a source of the protein casein) were heated in a water bath. The contents of the two

Introduction In this experiment‚ we will be figuring out how much does 80 degree celsius water reduce in temperature in 15 minutes‚ using different materials to insulate the heat. The five materials that will be tested are: Aluminium foil‚ plastic wrap‚ newspaper‚ felt‚ and bubble wrap. Aluminium foil is a reflective material; this means that it bounces the thermal energy back to the foiled object. It also absorbs the heat. Not only does it stop heat loss‚ but Aluminium foil is also useful for

Ocean Acidification SDI: Solubility of CO2 in different temperatures Aim: To observe the solubility of CO2 in different temperatures Hypothesis: We hypothesise that in cold water the level of co2 absorption will be greater than warm water which will mean the air space in the cylinder will be less compared to warm water. Independent: Type of water. Dependant: room temperature‚ amount of water‚ type‚ size and amount of tablet‚ amount of water in the basin. Materials: 250ml graduated

Correlation between the chemical activity of Amylase and change in temperature ABSTRACT This experiment focuses on how the change of temperature affects the rate of reaction of amylase. In the experiment there were four different environments that each contained 2 test tubes. Each test tube consisted of the same concentration and amount of starch and amylase. After having each test tube placed in these environments for several minutes a droplets of each mixture was placed onto each slot which
