Reaction Rates of Barley Alpha Amylase with Starch at Specific pH ’s and Temperatures Page 1 Abstract Enzyme ’s are used as catalysts in certain reactions. They help lower the activation energy needed for the reaction to go to completion. At optimum temperature and pH the amount of collisions of substrate and enzyme is at its highest‚ any deviation from the optimum temperature and pH will result in the denaturization of the enzyme. The purpose of this experiment is to find the optimum

Equilibrium: Finding equilibrium constant‚ Kc 1 Abstract Chemical reactions are accompanied with formation of products. A reaction can be reversible or forward according to the rate of formation of product. However‚ they do not reach completion and the mixture remains in equilibrium. This theory help us the study the existence of equilibrium constant‚ Kc. This constant is temperature dependent‚ and it must be calculated at given temperature. This equilibrium constant is used to improve the

Aim: This experiment will aim to show how the amount of substrate affects the rate of the reaction. Hypothesis: In this experiment I think the amount of substrate will simply increase the reaction. As I increase the surface area of the potato the gas given off from the reaction will increase. Therefore to sum things up‚ my hypothesis is when the Independent variable increases so will the dependant variable. Independent variable: - Surface area of potato Dependant variable: - Gas Controlled

investigate the rate of reaction between Calcium Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid. Just from looking at the aim of the investigation I already know that a salt would be formed because a carbonate with an acid forms a salt. In this investigation the substance that is formed is Calcium Chloride‚ Water and Carbon Dioxide. The symbol equation for this is: CaCo3  Ca2+ + Co32- Hcl  H+ + Cl- Add these all together to get CaCO3(s) + 2H+(aq) --> Ca++(aq) + H2O + CO2(g) The rate of reaction is just

Spectrophotometric Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Introduction: In this experiment‚ you will study the reaction between aqueous iron (III) nitrate‚ Fe(NO3)3‚ and potassium thiocyanate‚ KSCN. They react to produce the blood-red complex [Fe(SCN)]2+. Fe3+ + SCN- ( [Fe(SCN)]2+ The equilibrium constant expression may be expressed as: K = [pic] You will prepare a series of standard solutions that contain known concentrations of [Fe(SCN)]2+ and will determine

2.0 Kinematics of Linear motion is defined as the studies of motion of an objects without considering the effects that produce the motion. There are two types of motion: Linear or straight line motion (1-D) with constant (uniform) velocity with constant (uniform) acceleration‚ e.g. free fall motion Projectile motion (2-D) x-component (horizontal) y-component (vertical) 2 Learning Outcome: 2.1 Linear Motion (2 hour) www.kmph.matrik.edu.my At the end of this chapter

Determination of an Equilibrium Constant. Abstract: The report presents determination of equilibrium constant for the formation of a complex ion FeSCN2+. This was accomplished using a colorimeter to measure absorbance of some known concentration solutions in order to generate the calibration curve. The equation of the graph was used to compute the equilibrium concentrations of the reactants and products‚ needed to calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction. I. Introduction:

P5. Homeostasis is the process by which a constant internal environment is maintained by our body. For instance‚ this means that in our body‚ temperature‚ blood sugar levels‚ etc must be kept within a narrow range even when we are in a freezing climate‚ or while doing vigorous exercise etc. All homeostatic control mechanisms have at least three interdependent components which are: The receptor responds to changes in the environment‚ for example‚ detects temperature change. Then‚ after the receptor

factors affecting the rate of a chemical reaction. Introduction: In my coursework I will be mainly concentrating on the reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid with marble chips (calcium carbonate). Calcium carbonate (marble chips) + hydrochloric acid ==> calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide CaCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) ==> CaCl2 (aq) + H2O (l) + CO2 (g) Aim: The aim of the experiment is to investigate how the concentration of hydrochloric acid affects the rate of reaction with marble chips‚

BACKGROUND: Esterification is a reaction that combines an alcohol with an organic acid‚ with a water molecule is being taken out‚ and an ester is formed. A concentrated acid catalyst speeds up the esterification. In this experiment set up‚ sulphamic acid was used‚ as it is a solid acid and be added dry‚ without any water‚ which is a reactant in this experiment equilibrium. Esterification is a slow and reversible reaction. The equation for the reaction between an acid RCOOH and an alcohol RẬᶦ
