Shelby Brown 8/28/10 Physical and chemical changes lab essay Changes in matter occur every day. There are two types of ways matter can be altered; physically and chemically. Physical changes do not change the composition of the matter while chemical changes occur when one or more substances turn into a completely new substance. Physical changes can be seen through an altering of the substances physical property. A substances physical property is observed and measured without changing

Introduction Catalysts are substances that increase chemical reactions while using less energy. They also remain unchanged after use‚ which enables it to be used repeatedly. Cells have special catalysts called enzymes‚ which are specialized proteins that help accelerate chemical cell reactions. (Evert‚ RF & Eichhorn‚ SE 2013). Enzymes also control plant metabolic processes such as respiration (Evert RF‚ Eichhorn SE & Perry JB 2013). This experiment focuses on the enzyme catalase. Catalase breaks down

he terms “chemical accident” or “chemical incident” refer to an event resulting in the release of a substance or substances hazardous to human health and/or the environment in the short or long term. Such events include fires‚ explosions‚ leakages or releases of toxic or hazardous materials that can cause people illness‚ injury‚ disability or death. While chemical accidents may occur whenever toxic materials are stored‚ transported or used‚ the most severe accidents are industrial accidents‚ involving

ReportTitle: Observations of Chemical ChangesDate: 9/9/13Name: Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is for the student to gain knowledge and experience regarding how avariety of chemicals react to one another. In addition‚ the student should also gain a betterunderstanding of the household chemicals that they use in their day to day lives.Procedure:Observe the chemical changes that occur by mixing a list of chemicals (provided in the lab manual).Add 2 drops of the first chemical into a well in the 96

Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change. But later‚ when I have studied about it and understood its purpose‚ I have started thinking “Why people avoid change at the first look without an analysis?” The general human tendency is to live in a comfortable zone in which he has lived for quite some time. He draws a circle‚ thinks that circle is his

Write an explanation of how any two factors affect the rate of an enzyme-controlled reaction. How do these factors affect the chemical structure and properties of the enzyme. Many things can affect the rate of enzyme activity. The temperature of the enzyme‚ the pH of the solution‚ the concentration of the enzyme‚ substrate and the product. Also‚ another affector is the number of competitive and non-competitive inhibitors. As I cannot explain them all‚ I have chosen to explain the effect of temperature

1. You don’t have to be a chem whiz * Chemical engineering requires a basic understanding of chemistry‚ physics‚ math. You’re not required to memorize formulas‚ it’s more important to understand the principles and learn how to apply them to solve a problem/improve status quo. However after a few semesters‚ your brain WILLremember many formulas! * You do need to be analytical and have the ability to think critically. You must be able to look at the problem from a bigger viewpoint but
