Shannon Wood 11/21/2012 Joel‚ Griffin‚ Blake Section #005 ISP 217L Lab 4- Phosphorus Where Does Phosphorus Go? My hypothesis is that dissolved Phosphate will change for the total phosphorus when left under a light. I believe that suspended phosphorus has the biggest impact on the eutrophication of lakes. When there is an increase of phosphorus in lakes‚ this leads to and increase in phytoplankton. This then leads to a decrease in water clarity. The reason that this is relevant is because

Experiment I: Thermochemistry Background: Thermochemistry is the branch of chemistry that focuses on the studies of chemical reactions or physical changes and heat associated with chemical reactions. According to the first law of thermodynamics‚ energy cannot be created or destroyed but it can be converted from one form into another and/or transferred between different atoms‚ molecules‚ or substances. In general‚ energy can be classified into two categories: kinetic and potential. Kinetic energy

of this lab was to compare the action of a catalyst (enzyme) under different environmental conditions. This was determined by performing a variety of different experiments. The first experiment was performed by adding hydrogen peroxide to sand. Due to the fact that the sand was not soluble in the hydrogen peroxide‚ no reaction thus no catalyst were present. Manganese dioxide was also added to the hydrogen peroxide creating a moderately fast reaction thus leading to believe that an enzyme was present

Investigating the Effect of Lipase Concentration on the Breakdown of Fat in Milk INTRODUCTION: Enzymes are proteins which can catalyse chemical reactions without changing themselves. The enzyme lipase breaks down the fat in dairy products such as full-cream milk for people who are lactose intolerant. Lipase acts on its specific substrate‚ lipids produces fatty acids. If enzyme concentration increases‚ random collisions between the substrates and active sites of enzyme increase due to the increasing

Concentration The Problem In many colleges over 8% of the students report problems concentrating on their studies. Most of these students blame outside distractions for their problems. Many research studies manipulating noise levels and distractions have found that such disturbances may increase‚ decrease‚ or not even affect concentration. These researchers have therefore concluded that distracters don’t cause concentration problems directly. It is the way the distracters are interpreted
