    What happens? For many reactions involving liquids or gases‚ increasing the concentration of the reactants increases the rate of reaction. In a few cases‚ increasing the concentration of one of the reactants may have little noticeable effect of the rate. These cases are discussed and explained further down this page. Don’t assume that if you double the concentration of one of the reactants that you will double the rate of the reaction. It may happen like that‚ but the relationship may well

    An investigation to compare the reaction rates between potato and hydrogen peroxide against liver and hydrogen peroxide through loss in mass. Background information: Catalase is an enzyme that is found in all cells. This means that it is an intracellular enzyme. And enzyme is a biological catalyst. A catalyst is some thing that speeds up a reaction without being changed itself. Because of this enzymes and catalysts can be used again and again. Enzymes are protein chains that have a primary‚ secondary

    Biology investigation: Liver and hydrogen peroxide By Cuong Tran Abstract: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the optimum temperature for enzyme activity. The stated hypothesis was that 37oC would be the optimum temperature for liver enzymes to break down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The dependent variable was to measure the amount of foam being produced‚ while testing 4 different temperatures with 3 repetitions each. Out of the 12 trials only 2 outliers were found

    Catalase Experiment Research Question: How does the weight of a piece of liver (0.4g‚ 0.8g‚ 1.2g and 1.6g in this case) affect the amount of gas created after 2 minutes when combined with hydrogen peroxide? Aim: To see find out how the amount of catalase correlates with the amount of gas created when in combination with hydrogen peroxide. Materials: 15g of liver 25 ml of hydrogen peroxide 1 scale 1 bucket 1 100ml graduated cylinder 1 250ml flask with bung 1 50cm tube (able to fix onto top of flask)

    INTRODUCTION Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions‚ without being used up or changed. Catalase is a globular protein molecule that is found in all living cells. A globular protein is a protein with its molecules curled up into a ’ball’ shape. All enzymes have an active site. This is where another molecule(s) can bind with the enzyme. This molecule is known as the substrate. When the substrate binds with the enzyme‚ a product is produced. Enzymes are specific to their
