Enzymes lower the activation energy of chemical reactions but they themselves are not consumed or altered when doing so. These catalysts work best at optimum temperatures and pH’s. The temperature and pH at which the reaction occurs the quickest is the ideal condition for the enzymatic reaction. Alpha amylase converts starch into glucose and when starch is combined with I2KI indicator a dark purple solution forms. As the enzyme breaks down the starch the absorbency will decrease. The absorbency

Two-Point Discrimination Test: Determining the Two-Point Threshold ABSTRACT The two-point discrimination test of the skin is a simple test of the sensory nerve function. Two-point discrimination measures the individual’s capability to distinguish two points of stimuli presented at the same time. The importance of this study is the ability to tell of two points verses than one that pressing on the skin depends on two things: the concentration of the sensory receptors and the connections that

Abstract In this experiment‚ the Ksp for calcium sulfate dihydrate‚ CaSO4·2H2O‚ by titrating 4 times a calcium sulfate dihydrate solution with diprotic EDTA‚ H2(EDTA)2-. For each trial we found the Ksp by means of molarities and activities. The results for the Ksp using only molarities was very different than the Ksp using activities. The average Ksp using molarity only was 2.26 x 10-4 and the average Ksp using activity turned out to be 2.31 x 10-5. The actual Ksp however‚ is 3.14 x 10-5. A percent

Determining the Cost of Capital Can One Size Fit All? 1. Why do you think Larry Stone wants to estimate the firm’s hurdle rate? Is it justifiable to use the firm’s weighted average cost of capital as the divisional cost of capital? Please explain. Larry wants to estimate the firm’s hurdle rate because it would provide him with a standard with which to measure feasibility of future investment proposal. The firm had thus far been using a ‘gut feel’ approach and although most of

The penal system has been no help in alleviating the stigma attached to mental illness‚ routinely and historically treating mentally unstable inmates with just the same harsh approach as their criminally insane counterparts. Indeed‚ the distinction between these two populations is significant; however‚ authorities have long been reluctant to entertain such a concept. Similar to the treatment availed to them in institutions‚ mentally ill inmates have a history of being shackled‚ beaten and deprived
