of Chlorine and Iodine in Water I. Introduction The purpose of this laboratory was to determine the amount of chlorine and iodine in a sample of water by titration using a starch indicator and to standardize a sodium thiosulfate solution. Chlorine is added to municipal water supplies to purify it enough to become safe to drink. Iodine is also added to water when people camp or go hiking in the back country where they cannot bring purified water along. Chlorine and iodine are added to kill

Introduction This practical experiment was performed in an attempt to observe how enzymes (starch phosphorylase in particular) are affected by varying its temperature before introducing it to the substrate it will be reacting with. A catalyst (enzyme) is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction; for a reaction to take place at all‚ the enzyme must first come into contact with the substrate. Enzymes are subject to a number of factors which effect how fast they can cause a reaction with a substrate;

with starch? A 1% solution of amylase‚ made from 0.15g of amylase added to 15ml of water‚ a 2% solution of amylase made of 0.3g of amylase added to 15ml of water‚ and a 0.5% solution of amylase made of 0.75g of amylase to 15ml of water were created. A 0.25% starch solution was also created‚ and 3ml was added to each of the 4 test tubes. 1 drop of iodine was added to each test tube. 4ml of the 1% solution was added to the first test tube‚ 4ml of the 2% solution was added to the second test tube‚

iodide ions producing iodine‚ when in an aqueous acid solution. H2O2 (aq) + 2I- (aq) + 2H3O+(aq) I2 (aq) + 2H2O(l) To detect iodine you can look at the color shown by the addition of starch solution. Iodine also reacts with sodium thiosulphate solution‚ which acts as a delaying agent. Adding sodium thiosulphate to the reaction mixture will allow the iodine produced initially to react with the thiosulphate ions‚ which reduce the iodine to iodide ions‚ leaving the starch unchanged. 2S2O32-(aq)

PLANNING COURSEWORK- STARCH AND AMYLASE AIM The aim of this coursework is to investigate the effect of temperature change‚ on the rate of hydrolysis of starch catalysed by amylase. PREDICTION I think that as the temperature increases‚ the rate of reaction also increases‚ to a point when it dramatically decreases. On graph 1‚ you will see a sketch of the graph which I expect to be the result of the experiment. SCIENCE REASONING I think my prediction is correct because the rate of

The Effect and Rate of the Enzyme Amylase on Starch Abstract Assessing reaction speed of the enzyme amylase can be measured by the amount of glucose and maltose produced during given time intervals. I hypothesized that‚ if the reaction time is longer‚ then the amount of amylase will be larger. Enzymes are specific in their match of substrates they will breakdown – similar to a key and its lock. Since amylase is the only enzyme that breaks down starch‚ the procedure was effective and gave clear
