Kenishia Pascal 10x3. Investigating How Different Concentration Effects The Rate Of Reaction. Strategy A Possible Factors * Source of catalase * Concentration * Surface Area of enzyme * Concentration of enzyme * pH * Temperature Chosen Factor We chose to investigate the concentration of enzyme as we had previously investigated the optimum temperature for catalase in the preliminary investigation. Concentration of enzyme is also fairly easy to investigate‚ as

It is a brief paragraph or 2 which outlines the purpose‚ the method‚ the pattern of results and the conclusion you reached. It is an overall snapshot of the whole investigation. Introduction: Purpose: Biological Background: All living organisms are made of cells which are surrounded by a membrane. The cell membrane has many functions but the

enzyme mediated process in which organic compounds such as glucose is broken down into simpler products with the release of energy (Duka‚ Diaz and Villa‚ 2009). It is a series of metabolic processes and oxidation-reduction reactions. Oxidation of substrates‚ such as glucose‚ is a fundamental part of cellular respiration (Mader‚ 2009). As a catabolic process‚ it may or may not require the presence of oxygen. The process that requires oxygen is called aerobic respiration while the process that does not

Total CO2 Evolved by Different Concentrations of Convollaria roots. Actual values are the graduated pipette readings. For CO2 evolved values‚ subtract the initial reading from the actual reading. This is the amount of CO2 accumulated over time. | Time (min) | Tube 1 | Tube 2 | Tube 3 | Tube 4 | | Actual | CO2 Evolved | Actual | CO2 Evolved | Actual | CO2 Evolved | Actual | CO2 Evolved | | (A) | (A-I) | (A) | (A-I) | (A) | (A-I) | (A) | (A-I) | Initial reading (I) | 0.05 | | 0

iodine becoming a dark blue starch;I2(aq) + starch blue-black complex3. These three reactions react in a sequence. In any reaction the concentration is exponentially related to the rate of the reaction. The rate of the reaction is dependent on potassium iodate4. Therefore as the concentration increases‚ the rate of the reaction also increases. Since the rate of the reaction is inversely proportional to time‚ as the

Experiment to investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte on the current of voltaic cell Aim The aim is to identify the relationship between the concentration of H2SO4 solution and the current of Cu-Zn voltaic cell. Hypothesis My hypothesis is that the greater the concentration of sulfuric acid the bigger the current of the voltaic cell. In a voltaic cell‚ chemical energy is concerted to electrical though the oxidation and reduction happen on the electrodes. Current will not flow

HYDROLYSIS OF ESTERS Anhydrous alkanoic acids react with alcohols in the presence of heated sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to form an ester and water. This process is known as esterification. This can be represented by the equation: Alkanoic acid + Alcohol (means reversible eq) ester + water Esters occur naturally in fruits and flowers and are described as oily‚ sweet smelling liquids. Vegetable oils and animal fats are esters of long-chain acids. Esters can undergo a range of reactions and

such as fructose. The enzyme helps a chemical reaction take place quickly so that the reaction happens properly. In order for that to happen the enzymes process by the lock and key model‚ the lock is the substrate and the enzyme is the key. The active sites are specific to a certain substrate of a molecule‚ so the enzymes only have one job to do. The shape of an enzyme is not changed or consumed during these reactions. However‚ without enzymes the reactions would take too long and would not breakdown

VARYING EFFECTS OF ENZYME CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATES OF MALATE DEHYDROGENASE CELL BIOLOGY 13 NOVEMBER 2007 Enzymes are biological catalysts. They are proteins that speed up reactions with low concentrations. These enzyme proteins are made up of linkages of amino acids. The links coil‚ and coil again forming a tertiary structure. This structure has a groove in it called an active site. The active site is

Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction Photosynthesis is a process that is essential for every living organism. Organic substances‚ such as glucose‚ are made from carbon dioxide and water by light energy from the sun. The light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy. During the process‚ oxygen is released as a by-product. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by a few of factors‚ including
