Title : Studying the rate of photosynthesis using leaf discs. Aim : To measure the effect of light intensity on the rate of photosynthesis in leaf discs. Introduction : The simple concept of photosynthesis is that it can occurs in the presence of light‚ which takes place in the chloroplasts of green plant cells. Photosynthesis can also be defined as the production of simple sugars from carbon dioxide and water causing the release of glucose and oxygen. The chemical equation for photosynthesis

Hydrogen is recognized as the simplest and lightest chemical element in the periodic table; even though it is identified as one of the top elements in abundance in the world (consisting of 0.9 percent of the total mass on earth)‚ it is considered to be the most abundant element in the entire universe. It is a gaseous element with the atomic symbol being H. It is usually categorized under the first group of the periodic table known as the alkali metals. It contains only one electron that revolves

Effects of SO2 On Fermentation Rates Purpose SO2 is the primary inhibitor for natural microbiological growth in wine. It prevents the browning of juice by inhibiting phenol oxidase activity and kills the natural yeast cells for the utilization of fermentation-controlled commercial Saccharomyce strands (Boulton et al. 1996). SO2 is pH and temperature dependent and can exist as several forms. The bisulfate form (HSO3-) can complex with soluble solids such as anthocyanins and acetaldehydes to become

SCH4U7-02 Monday‚ October 21‚ 2013 Designing an Experiment to Investigate Factors Affecting Rate of Reaction Introduction Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)‚ is the most simple peroxide and commonly used in several household items such as toothpaste or as an alternative to bleach. However hydrogen peroxide it is a very dangerous substance when accumulated in large amounts. If that situation occurs this substance must be decomposed. But how can we decompose this reaction? Well it decomposes by itself
