The purpose of this review paper is to discuss the effect of temperature on enzyme- catalyzed reactions. This is relevant because many diseases can be diagnosed and controlled by the processes of enzyme activity (Worthington 2015). If more information is not found about enzyme activity and how it is affected‚ many diseases may go undiagnosed and uncontrolled. Temperature is a type measurement that does not only consist of heat. It is the measurement of the mean kinetic energy of any group of particles

Single Displacement Reaction The objective of this experiment was to observe evidence of a reaction and to determine the chemical equation‚ if there is a reaction. In order for a reaction to occur‚ a metal strip must have evidence of black or grey deposits on the surface of the metal once dipped into the solution. The reactivity of an element is related to its tendency to lose or gain electrons. Three metal strips that were used are copper‚ lead and zinc as well as the solutions of silver nitrate

mistake was made. Results Reaction time to a second word or non-word is influenced by the previous word or non-word. The null hypothesis stated that all pairs would have the same mean reaction time‚ regardless of whether the first string was a word or non-word. The alternative hypothesis stated that the mean reaction time for word-non-word pairs would be slower than non-word-word pairs‚ which would be equal to the mean reaction time for non-word-non-word pairs.

Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction was discovered by Otto Diels and Kurt Alder and is very useful in the synthesis of polycyclic compounds. The Diels-Alder reaction can be described as: [4+2] cycloaddition- a diene with 4 π electrons + 2π electrons from the dienophile; a pericyclic concerted reaction- meaning the reaction occurs in a single step (no intermediates) and involves a cyclic redistribution of bonding electrons. In order for a Diels-Alder reaction to take place the diene must

April 7th‚ 2015 Section- 109 Investigating Stoichiometry with Sodium Salts of Carbonic Acid Introduction- This experiment is intended to help find a better understanding of chemical stoichiometry through titrations of NaHCO3 and NA2CO3 with HCl. A chemical reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance‚ as opposed to a change in physical form in a nuclear reaction. Titration is when a measured amount of solution of unknown volume

From the results recorded it was identified that activity A and C had exothermic reactions‚ whilst activity B had an endothermic reaction. Each of the activities had initially begun with 23.4/8/9oC‚ however‚ within one minute of adding the 2nd reactants‚ the results began showing‚ as seen from the graph. Activity A and C had risen in temperature‚ with A gaining 4oC and in total of 2 minutes having the temperature of 27.9oC along with C increasing by 2.2oC and within 2 minutes of the experiment having

In such cases‚ the enzyme is a protein in the cell which lowers the activation energy of a catalyzed reaction‚ which serves to increase the rate of the reaction. Alkaline phosphatase is made throughout the body. Its function is to remove phosphate groups
