its fastest reaction rate possible. In our lab‚ the enzyme(catalase) performs at optimal level of pH 7. As you change the pH of the solution(independent variable) in which the enzyme resides in you will see a decrease in the reaction rate of the enzyme(dependent variable). You can measure this reaction rate by looking at how much oxygen is being released and calculating the rate of increase in(O2%/min). You will test three different pH levels in this lab which are pH 4‚ pH 7‚ and pH 10. You will

Lab 34b Cardiovascular Physiology 1. What was the baseline heart rate for the frog? 59-63 bpm 2. Which wave is larger‚ the one for atrial contraction or the one for ventricular contraction? Why? Ventricular. It shows the strength of the ventricle as it pumps blood‚ and it is a thicker muscle to pump stronger as it contracts 3. At what time during the contraction cycle was it possible to induce an extrasystole? The time during the relaxation part of cardiac cycle. 4. By clicking the Multiple

Pre-Lab Work Sheet Which type of compound usually has higher melting points: ionic compounds or covalent compounds? What is the reason for this difference in melting points? (3 points) Ionic compounds have higher melting and boiling points than covalent compounds. The electrostatic attraction in an ionic bond is very strong hence a lot of heat energy is required to break it down‚ ionic bonds have high melting and boiling points. In covalent bonds‚ the intermolecular forces are very weak and

Krupa Desai Cell Biology April 3‚ 2013 Lab: Biosynthesis of Starch Introduction: In this lab we learned the concept and procedure of synthesizing starch. We also learned the effects of pH and temperature on the reaction rates of amylase.. In the process of the synthesis lab we learned phosphorylation using a potato‚ which was what we synthesized. The phosphorylation took place after the addition of primer. There are two different types of starches used are amylose and amylopectin. To test

Ocean County College Department of Chemistry Chem 180 Lab 5: Ionic Reactions Submitted by Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to work with aqueous solutions of ionic substances. Aqueous solutions are those solutions in which water is the solvent. When ionic substances are dissolved in water‚ the ions separate and become surrounded by water molecules. The focus of this experiment is on precipitates. The goal of this experiment is to study the nature of ionic reactions‚ write balanced

Timothy Johns Christian Howard Wan Huang 10/18/12 Flame Test Lab Introduction Spectroscopy is the study of the electromagnetic radiation emitted or absorbed by atoms and molecules. These studies are very helpful in determining an unknown element‚ given the fact that all elements burn a different color. The flame colors vary because of the different amounts of energy the elements give off. This lab is made for the learner to determine the identity of two unknown elements. Hypothesis If

Materials and Methods The laboratory procedures were conducted based on the steps provided in ‘An Introduction to Chemical Systems in the Laboratory’1. Specifically‚ 1.90 grams of KCL was weighed in a 250ml beaker and dissolved in 25 ml of deionized water. This solution was then quantitatively transferred to a 250ml volumetric flask. Proper technique is needed for quantitative analysis. This transfer was done to ensure that there was no detectable KCl left in the beaker. After transferring the
