    1. The results of the 120 seconds with the non-pop beads added to the mix didn’t hinder the enzyme’s construction rate at all except for the first trial. In the first trial 28 chainobeads were constructed, in the second trial 30 chainobeads were constructed, and in the final trial 35 chainobeads were constructed. The results may have varied since our enzyme became very good at handling and constructing the chainobeads.…

    1) The purpose of this lab was to determine the rate of enzyme activity under variety of different conditions, such as, different amount of drops of enzymes and different temperature of water. The class measured the pressure in the test tube during the reaction of the substance with, 1.5 ml of H2O2, 1.5ml of H2O and different amounts of enzyme drops, to determine how much oxygen gas is produced during the reaction since the pressure of the test tube will get higher as more oxygen gas is accumulated during the reaction.…

    Five more solutions were prepared in the same fashion except with 1.0mL of catechol instead of 1.0mL of water. These experimental solutions were covered and mixed. Each solution and its sister blank (blank to be tested at the same temperature) were placed in one of the temperatures, with the 20°C solution left at room temperature. The solutions were left for 5 minutes in their respective temperatures to allow the buffers to reach the selected temperature. After 5 minutes, the solutions were taken out and 1.0mL of enzyme was added to each solution.…
