Temperature Affecting Enzyme Activity Introduction The basic properties of life revolve around chemical reactions. Without the presence of enzymes some of life’s processes would not come so easily. Enzymes are basically proteins‚ which have specific shapes for different substrates. Enzymes change the rate in chemical reactions. It does this without having to change its own shape‚ which makes enzymes different from other proteins. A common enzyme that we have is catalase‚ which breaks down

TITLE: Solubility and Thermodynamics PURPOSE: The purpose of the lab was to determine the thermodynamics variables of ∆H‚ ∆S‚ and ∆G for the dissolution reaction of potassium nitrate in water. The solubility of potassium nitrate in mol/L was measured over a range of various temperatures by finding out at what temperature crystallization began for solutions of different molarities. Then‚ the equilibrium constant was calculated and a graphical relationship between the natural logarithm of the

17th‚ October 2010 Margarita SA: VOL RATIO AND AGAR BLOCKS Conclusion: For this experiment the agar jelly had to be cut in to five different block sizes‚ after that has been done we had to add all five blocks in to the test tube with the acid and time to see how long it would take for the colour to change from a pinky purple to clear. From this experiment I learnt that the bigger the size of the jelly is the

think that more oxygen will be released from the Hydrogen Peroxide and Catalyse. We will be measuring the two main factors: - * Oxygen - the amount released from the Hydrogen peroxide * Time - The duration of the reaction The room temperature may be a factor that will affect our results.

Biology Lab Report - Movement in and out of cells (4A) Shiang Chen Ting (24) Sec 313 Introduction The aim of this experiment is to explore the factors which affect the movement of materials in and out of the cells. The dark red or purple colour of Beetroots is caused by a pigment called betalain that is found within the vacuole of the beetroot cells. The pigment remains intact within the cell if the cells are not “stressed” by the external environment. In this exploration‚ two factors that affect

1. Provide a general discussion of the solubility/miscibility behavior observed in procedure A-D. For part A of the procedure we worked with the solubility of solid compounds in various solvents. The three solid compounds that were worked with during this procedure were benzophenone‚ malonic acid‚ and biphenyl. These three solids were then mixed with water (highly polar)‚ methyl alcohol (intermediately polar)‚ and hexanes (nonpolar). When benzophenone is mixed with water the results turned out to

needle-like crystalline structure. DISCUSSION The effect of polarity on interactions between the molecules was the focus of the first experiment. For the compounds which dissolved in the solvents used‚ they were soluble because they have the same polarity‚ while undissolved ones did not have the same polarity with the solvents used. Anthracene clearly did not dissolve in any of the following solvents‚ except for toluene but there was only a little effect since it was only slightly dissolved. The same
