The effect of temperature on a reaction rate In this experiment I shall be investigating how temperature affects the rate of reaction Rates of reaction The Factors that affect the rate of reaction are temperature‚ surface area‚ concentration‚ catalysts‚ light and pressure Surface area – Surface area is the amount of solid surface that is available for reaction - Only affects solids so this will not affect our

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

project is to demonstrate how water temperature affects the dissolving of sugar in liquid. Everything in our universe is made up of particles which are in constant motion. In a solid state particles move the slowest while in a liquid state particles move the fastest. Under the right conditions‚ solid particles (the solute) when mixed in liquid (the solvent) can form a solution. This occurrence is called dissolving. I wanted to answer the question; does the temperature of water affect the speed at which

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

DNA Structure Monday‚ 15 April 2013 9:01 AM - DNA = Deoxyribonucleic acid DNA is a double-helix: it has two strands that twist around each other Each strand is made of single units call nucleotides It has a sugar-phosphate backbone Bases join the two strands by hydrogen bonds ○ These bases are cytosine‚ guanine‚ adenine and thymine. - Complementary base pairing is a key idea in genetics: C pairs with G‚ and T pairs with A. - Each strand of DNA can be millions of base pairs in length and is

Part B: Practical Report The Effect of Temperature on Enzyme Activity Aim: To investigate how temperature effects the enzyme catalase. Hypothesis: If the temperature of water is increased then the enzyme will react quicker to form oxygen and water‚ when compared to cold water. Purpose: To design and conduct a plan of a practical about the effects of temperature on enzymatic activity with a partner. Introduction: An enzyme is a protein‚ which speeds up a specific chemical reaction without altering

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON CORROSION OF CERMETS ALLOY ABSTRACT Tungsten carbides (WC) are widely used as wear resistant components such as seal‚ valves‚ rings‚ nozzle and bearings. But in some processing operations‚ the environment necessarily includes severe corrosion or extremes of temperatures. In this research‚ commercially cobalt tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) and nickel tungsten carbide (WC-9%Ni) was examined in seawater (3.5% salinity) to know the effect of temperature on corrosion for both

My topic for the science fair project is "The effect of temperature in energy loss in a basketball". Some of my subtopics for my project include the pressure air and height in a basketball‚ the material a basketball is made out of and the size of the ball. Different sports require different size balls to correspond with the correct bounce it needs to be used during the sport. Thats why you would not be able to use a tennis ball to play basketball because it is too bouncy and a soccer
