    tubes are clearly labeled with 1 and 7, test tube 1 contains the 1 cm³ liver and test tube 7 contains the 5 mL of hydrogen peroxide. these two test tubes are in a 250 mL beaker containing approximately 125 mL of tap water and ice. The thermometer was placed in test tube 7, which contains the hydrogen peroxide to measure the temperature of the solutions. The hydrogen peroxide was poured into the test tube containing to the liver and was observed. Figure 2: Diagram of the apparatus used…

    catalase affect the initial rate of formation and total amount of O2? Introduction In water, hydrogen peroxide converts naturally into diatomic oxygen gas and water through the collision of water molecules. However, this reaction occurs at an extremely slow rate. With the presence of an enzyme, catalase, the reaction occurs at a much faster rate. This is because catalase binds with the hydrogen peroxide substrate at its transition state to weaken the covalent bonds, reducing the energy and…

    It is also called anabolism or biogenesis. It is a enzyme-catalyzed method in which substrates are transformed into complex products. In this process simple compounds change or convert into other compounds or they join together to form macromolecules. Example: In this process gluneogenesis is responsible for the production of glucose from non carbohydrate originator. Actually biosynthesis is an enzyme-catalyzed process in which substrates are converted into complex compounds. 1. Biosynthesis…

    Serina Alashi DATE: TITLE: Decomposition reaction: hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen ( H2 and O2) RESEARCH QUESTION: How will changing the concentration of hydrogen peroxide affect the rate of reaction, that is represented by the increase in pressure over time? Introduction: Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound of hydrogen and oxygen. It is a very strong oxidant but weak in water solution. Hydrogen peroxide decomposes into water and oxygen when heated above…

    Does Hydrogen Peroxide Help or Harm Seeds? Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a common household item. It is made of two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms. It is most commonly used in small concentrations to clean small cuts and scrapes by killing bacteria. This antiseptic kills the bacteria by tearing down their cell walls. In the last few years, hydrogen peroxide has been added to pesticides. This means that the food we consume has been growing in materials that contain hydrogen peroxide. We have…

    Catalase?”) This experiment involved both of these two aspects. It was inferred before the experiment began that if the potato is placed in hydrogen peroxide at room temperature, then it will produce the most bubbling activity. The reason that the potatoes produced a bubbling activity is because hydrogen peroxide is an example of a catalase. Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H2O2. It is made of 2H2O which is water, and Oz which is oxygen. (Corsini, "What Is a…

    Peroxisomes serve to produce hydrogen peroxide through oxidation, as well as break it down by converting it to water, or using the hydrogen peroxide to oxidize other organic compounds. They also produce energy by metabolizing fatty acids (Cooper, 2000). Peroxisomes execute various metabolic functions and create hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct from the process of oxidation. However, since the hydrogen peroxide created by the peroxisome is toxic, the organelle also produces an enzyme called…

    Hemoglobin has a peroxidase-like activity, meaning that it will break down hydrogen peroxide, or other organic hydroperoxides. This makes it useful in forensics, since you can test for the presence of hemoglobin simply by dropping hydrogen peroxide on it. Of course, there are a lot of things that have peroxidases in them, so this is a presumptive test for the presence of blood. Blood cells are not immortal; each cell wears out in about four months, and will disintegrate in the blood stream,…

    We were asked, "Where does the oxygen (O2) come from?" Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the liver, or both? The oxygen comes from hydrogen peroxide. The substance in the liver interacts with the hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is altered when two substances are combined. The oxygen gas, as a product, comes from the hydrogen peroxide. Enzymes are big proteins that speed up the rate of a chemical reaction by moving as a catalyst. A catalyst provides the environment for the reaction to occur.…
