Enzymes Lab Report

For this lab, we did an experiment on the effects that variables had on enzyme action. Enzymes are catalysts that drive reaction rates forward. (“Enzymes.” Chemistry LibreTexts, 21 July 2016, chem.libretexts.org/Core/Biological_Chemistry/Catalysts/Enzymes.) The purpose of this lab was to use the enzyme catalase to look at the effects of enzyme concentration, pH, and temperature on its activity. We used labquest2 and an O2 sensor for data collection. The O2 sensor detected the changes in the O2 concentration inside of a sealed test tube that contained the yeast and H2O2 solution by forming a graph. First, we formed graphs for the variation in pH levels and found that certain enzymes react better with certain pH levels. Then we tested the variation
