1. Benedict’s solution is added to white grape juice and heated. The color changes from blue to orange. Based on this result, what biological molecules are

The aim of the study is two-fold: to study the rate of absorbance with increasing concentration of glucose, and to measure the activity of enzyme yeast invertase on sucrose. In task 1, the product formation was measured using 3, 5-dinitrosalicyclic acid that reacts with glucose leading to a change in colour from yellow to reddish brown. In task 2, the enzyme kinetics of yeast invertase on sucrose was studied. The absorbance values of the corresponding volumes of the solutions were measured using a spectrophotometer. Michaelis-Menten curve and Lineweaver-Burk Plot were made in order to estimate the values of Vmax and Km

When glucose carriers in the membrane were set to 500, the glucose transport rate for 2.00 mM of glucose was .0008 mM/min. Equilibrium was reached at 43 minutes. At 700 glucose carriers the rate was .0010 mM , and equilibrium was reached at 33 minutes. When the glucose carriers was set at 900 the rate was .012 mM/min, and equilibrium was reached at 27 minutes. After changing the glucose concentration to 8.0 mM, the glucose transport rate with 500 carrier proteins was .0023 mM/min, and equilibrium was reached at 58 minutes. With the simulation set at 700 carrier proteins the rate was .0031mM/min, and equilibrium was reached at 43 minutes. When the simulation was done with 900 carrier proteins the glucose transport rate was .0038, and equilibrium was reached at 35 minutes.

Time) because it had a correlation closest to 1. All three orders were graphed and a linear regression was used to see which graphed order was closest to 1. The order was determined by comparing the concentration and time to the mathematical predictions made using the integrated rate laws. Analyzing each graph and finding each correlation helped determine which graph was closest to 1. The more concentrated a solution is, the higher the absorbance of that solution. This is due to Beer’s Law. The law measures the absorbance of a solution by determining how much light passes through a solution. As the concentration of a solution increases, fewer wavelengths of light are able to pass through the concentrated solution. The absorbance at 60 seconds was 0.573 (Figure 1: Table1). To calculate the concentration (molarity), the Beer’s Law equation was used, Abs = slope(m)+b. Plugging in what is known into the Beer’s Law equation resulted in 0.573 = 3.172e+004 + 0, where the concentration is determined by M = 0.573-0/ 3.172e+004. So, the concentration at 60 seconds using the equation (M = 0.573-0 / 3.172e+004) was 1.824e-5 M. The 1st order graph resulted in k=0.006152 (Figure 1: Graph 1). Other groups also resulted in their decolorization of CV to be the 1st rate

σA = 0.3 × (0.07)2 + 0.4 × (0.06)2 + 0.3 × (0.08)2 − (0.021)2 = 0.004389,

Short Answer Writing Assignment – Both the calculated binomial probabilities and the descriptive statistics from the class database will be used to answer the following questions.

The reaction will be complete after approximately 60 seconds. Observe where color develops, and consider what these results indicate. Record your results in Table 1.

Three peaks are observed in Figure 1 (concentration of glucose vs. elution volume) which was expected due to the results in table 4 that show intervals of elution. The intervals of the elution are represented as peaks on the graph. The intervals are due to the glucose molecules that enter the beads of the column causing the glucose molecules to elute slowly. Two peaks are observed in Figure 2 (concentration of starch vs. elution volume), which was not expected. One peak was expected for the

A 300.0-mL saturated solution of copper(II) peroidate (Cu(IO4)2) contains 0.38 grams of dissolved salt. Determine the Ksp.

Figure one depicts the reaction rate of peroxidase enzyme over time. The y-axis shows the absorbance of the assay solutions, and the x-axis depicts time it took for the reaction to occur in seconds.

Glucose is very important in our daily lives. It gives us energy to carry out all of our activities. Cells in our bodies need glucose to respire and in the process release the energy we need. Glucose is also a type of carbohydrate. It has a chemical formula of C6H12O6 and is a monosaccharide reducing sugar (Kolej Mara Banting – Students’ Handbook for Biology HL Year 1). It is the simplest form of carbohydrate. In this experiment, sulphuric acid, H2SO4 and potassium permanganate, KMnO4 is added into glucose with different concentration and the time taken for the purple pink colour of potassium permanganate solution to change to colourless is recorded. This is because glucose donates electrons to the permanganate

In order to assimilate diffusion through a permeable membrane potassium permanganate and methylene blue were used in experiment. The objective was to compare the rates at which the liquid compound of different molecular weight diffused through agar. This was achieved by obtaining agar in a petri dish with two wells to hold the liquid compounds. The rate was measured by time and diameter distance diffused. This process was observed for 60 minutes at 15 minute intervals.

The purposes of this experiment were to model a bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction between potassium hydroxide (KOH) with 1-bromopropane and determine whether it follows a second-order rate law mechanism. A rate constant of 0.0684 M-1 min-1 was obtained for this reaction at 45.1°C, which was determined through equilibrating the reaction and performing titrations of 0.390 M KOH with 0.1000 M hydrochloric acid (HCl). The activation energy calculated from class data was 50.188 kJ/mol, which deviated largely from the literature range value of 72.80–83.76 kJ/mol. It was concluded that the reaction was consistent with the predicted SN2 mechanism, based on the regression of a trendline.

The beaker was then filled partially with distilled water; 1 ml of potassium iodide was then added, and the solution was tested for the presence of glucose. This data was recorded in table 1 on the data sheet along with the starting color of both the potassium iodide solution and the glucose/starch solution. The dialysis tubing was then submersed into the beaker containing the potassium iodide solution, and set aside for 30 minutes to allow maximum diffusion.

The higher the glucose concentration the shorter the time taken for the potassium permanganate to decolourise from purple to colourless.
