the rate of catalase activity The extent at which environmental factors affect the rate of catalase activity was discovered in this lab. The assay system‚ in which a filter paper disc was dipped into the enzyme and submerged using a stirring rod in a test tube filled with 20mL of hydrogen peroxide‚ was used to test several enzyme factors. As the saturation of hydrogen peroxide increased the rate of reaction increased as well. When the enzyme concentration increased the rate of catalase activity

Premium Catalase Hydrogen peroxide Enzyme
Simple Experiments on the Enzyme Catalase Aim: The aim of this practical is to use three different techniques to investigate the effect of different concentrations of the enzyme catalase on the rate of breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. Background information Catalase is an enzyme which is found in all living organisms. This enzyme catalases the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Cells continually produce a poisonous by-product of metabolising‚ called hydrogen peroxide. This

be affected by changes in something like temperature. A catalyst is a substance which changes the role or speed at which a reaction occurs. The catalyst in our experiment was the enzyme‚ catalase. An enzyme is a specialized protein which catalyzes reactions in cells. The enzyme in our experiment was catalase‚ which came from the potato juice. The function of an enzyme is to catalyze reactions in cells. The specific function of the enzyme in this experiment was to see if it affected the activity

into the second beaker containing the potato catalase for exactly 5 seconds. It was next dried on a paper towel for 5 seconds‚ and finally placed at the bottom of the first beaker‚ which contained hydrogen peroxide solution. The timer was then started. The timer stopped when the paper disk floated up to the top of the beaker. This was performed 3 times. After this‚ two negative controls were tested. The first negative control used a denatured catalase instead of the potato extract. The

Experiment 3: Soil pH measurement Introduction Aims The aims of the experiment were to determine the pH of a variety of soils which included sedentary‚ 3:2‚ sand‚ organic matter with the means of a pH meter at various soil water ratios and with or without calcium chloride. Method and Materials Samples of sedentary soil‚ 3:2 soil‚ sand‚ organic matter and compost‚ 100ml vials(x12)‚ bottle of distilled water‚ analytical balance‚ pH meter‚ 2 buffer solution of known pH‚ 0.25M calcium chloride

Title: pH and buffer solutions Aim This experiment was carried out to determine the role of buffer solution and the factor which affect the buffer capacity. Besides‚ this experiment was carried out to investigate the solubility of protein casein over a range of pH concentration. This experiment also was carried out to determine the isoelectric point of the casein and the effect of the isoelectric point toward the casein solution. Methods Verification of the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

can reach a new pH level by interacting with soil. If water has a pH that is too high or too low‚ it can be life threatening to aquatic species and can corrode metal structures. After finding this out‚ I decided to test if water could reach an extreme pH just by interacting with soil around it. The question for this experiment therefore became the following. Will interaction with soil change the pH of water? I hypothesized that if water interacts with soil for three days‚ then the pH of the water will
