Experiment 10 – Enzymes Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts for biological reactions. Enzymes‚ like all catalysts‚ speed up reactions without being used up themselves. They do this by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. All biochemical reactions are catalyzed by enzymes. Since enzymes are proteins‚ they can be denatured in a variety of ways‚ so they are most active under mild conditions. Most enzymes have optimum activity at a neutral pH and at body temperature. Enzymes are

Study of Solubility Equilibrium of Potassium Hydrogen Tartrate Wang Haina 1. Aim 1. To determine the solubility of potassium hydrogen tartrate (KHT) at various temperatures from 10°C to 50 °C‚ and determine the corresponding Ksp at these temperatures. 2. To obtain the changes in enthalpy and entropy of the dissolution of KHT from the dependence of Ksp on temperature. 2. Results and discussion 2.1 Collection of data A portion of KHT (1 to 1.5 g) was added into about 100 mL of deionised

Experiment 7 General Safety Considerations 1. 1-Butanol and 1-bromobutane are toxic and irritating. Avoid all contact by constantly wearing goggles‚ gloves and working in the hood. Neither of these compounds can be poured down the drain. Like all products‚ 1-bromobutane should be turned in to your TA in a labeled vial. Any excess butanol should be discarded in non-halogenated waste. 2. H2SO4 is extremely corrosive. In very diluted form it can be poured down the drain‚ all other precautions

Makalah Biologi Percobaan Reaksi Hidrogen Peroksida dengan Katalase Penulis: Jancolin Yani Pendahuluan Seperti yang kita tahu bahwa hydrogen peroksida yang dihasilkan oleh sel-sel didalam tubuh kita akibat metabolism sel akan terpecah menjadi gas hydrogen dan oksigen dengan adanya keberadaan enzim katalase. Zat hydrogen peroksida sangat berbahaya bagi tubuh dalam kuantitas yang banyak oleh karena itu harus dipecah dan dikeluarkan. Sebagian besar zat hydrogen peroksida

Prediction I think that the speed of the cart will decrease as more weight is added on top of the cart. This is because the more weight that is placed on the moving vehicle/object‚ the more downward force is produced. This would increase the friction between the wheels of the cart and the ramp’s surface. The increase in friction would slow down the moving object (cart). Apparatus Trolley/cart- this is essentially a wooden block with wheels and a rubber end‚ to provide the collision with a

At compressor’s inlet there is an airbox with a sharp-edged orifice for flow measurement. An intercooler is provided between the two stages‚ and an intercooler between the second stage and the pressure vessel. Connected to the pressure vessel is an exhaust pipe with a throttling valve and a calibrated flow
