bleaches. Now bleach - in scientific terms - is a kind of catalyst. A catalyst is a chemical that increases the reaction rate of a chemical reaction (catalyse)‚ and the chemical reaction involves enzymes. So to understand how bleach works‚ we first understand how enzymes work. Enzymes Enzymes are the most important thing in our lives‚ it makes the world go ‘round! Enzymes are proteins that acts as catalysts and help combine or break down hydrogen peroxide. Imagine a pen with ink inside

substrate concentration on the activity of the enzyme catalase The aim of this experiment is to examine how the concentration of a substrate (hydrogen peroxide) affects the rate of reaction of an enzyme catalyse (found in liver cells) Research Question: how does changing the concentration of the substrate affect the rate of reaction of the enzyme catalyse? Hypothesis: As the concentration of the substrate increases‚ so does the rate of reaction until the reaction reaches a maximum rate. Also‚ as the concentration

Hypothesis: the higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide the faster the reaction will occur and the more foam will be produced. Aim: The aim of this investigation is to determine how the concentration of hydrogen peroxide effects the intensity of the reaction. Variables: Independent- The concentration of hydrogen peroxide. Dependant - The intensity of the reaction. Constants – The temperature‚ the amount of liver‚ pH level‚ test time‚ Materials: Solutions of hydrogen peroxide varying in

Determining Financial Viability Determining an organization’s financial viability is crucial to the short and long term financial success of the business. Having the organization’s finances in order allows the organization to understand the money that they have on hand‚ the equity of the business‚ and left over funds for other expenses. There are a number of financial factors that go together to determine the viability of a business. The relationship between accounting and the main financial department

+CO2 (g) In this experiment‚ I am going to see if temperature affects the reaction rate between marble chips and hydrochloric acid by timing the release of carbon dioxide in the reaction. I predict the higher the temperature‚ the faster the reaction rate. This is due to the kinetic theory. The more heat that is given to matter‚ the faster the particles move. This happens in the acid‚ so the faster the particles move‚ the faster the reaction rate due to more collisions between the marble chips

Homeostatic Control of Core Body Temperature Our bodies have processes that happen to keep everything at an even rate. If things get out of balance our bodies tries to bring them back into balance. Homeostasis refers to the processes of keeping internal body environment in a steady rate‚ when the external environment is changed. The aim of this essay is to discuss the internal environment‚ the importance of regulation of core temperature‚ negative feedback and positive feedback and contrast

Lab 1: Effect of pH on sodium benzoate‚ a food preservative Sheikh M Zakaria Person no. 36295651 TA: Synthia Gratia Date of Submission: 05/29/13 Abstract Sodium Benzoate is a common food preservative used in food products such as jams and jellies‚ soft drinks‚ pickles‚ condiments etc and in tinned products in the market. This experiment aimed to determine whether benzoic acid is formed from it’s superior soluble form sodium benzoate in stomach acid‚ which is simulated by HCl (pH=2). It has been

Solubility is the amount of solid that can be dissolved in a certain amount of liquid at a certain temperature. In order for solubility to be tested‚ two trials were run. 5 mL of deionized water was measured and poured into a beaker. The temperature of the water was recorded. 2 grams of the unknown was measured out and placed into the same beaker as the deionized water. The unknown and water was then mixed well until the
