Mixing the warm water, sugar and the yeast together caused a chemical reaction. They all reacted together and formed Carbon Dioxide. The carbon dioxide filled up the bottle and it made the yeast rise to fill the balloon up. The balloon was first drooped over the side of the bottle but as the yeast was rising the balloon began to stand up straight on the top of the bottle. The reason the balloon began to fill up is because balloons are made of rubber which is stretchy and the rubber made the balloon stretch and fill up with carbon dioxide.
First I will set up the apparatus as show above. I will add 1.5 grams
Measuring with your fingers helps to make your balloon animal come out in the correct proportions.
The topic of this lab is on biochemistry.This experiment was conducted to show how cells prevent the build of hydrogen peroxide in tissues. My group consisted of Lekha, Ruth, and Jason. There were used two different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide through this experiment , 1.5% and 3%. By testing two different types it is easier to understand how the H2O2 and catalase react with one another. To do this both the yeast, which was our catalase, and H2O2 were mixed together in a beaker. Each concentration was tested out twice for more accurate results . 1.5% concentrated H2O2 had an average reaction rate of 10.5 seconds while 3% concentrated H2O2 had an average reaction rate of 7.5 seconds. From this experiment we learned that by increasing the concentration of H2O2 and chemically combining it with a catalase it will speed up the reaction. Enzymes speed up chemical reactions . The independent variable in this experiment was the concentration of the H2O2. Some key vocabulary words are Catalase, enzyme, hydrogen peroxide ( H2O2), and concentration.
9) 10 mL of sugar was added to the solution and the balloon was quickly placed over the opening of the bottle to minimize the loss of any gas from the system.
Since sugar is composed of covalent bonds and therefore as we saw in part 2, takes much less time to melt, I think we didn’t observe bubbles because there was not as much as a reaction since it “melted” so much faster. Also, sugar does not change its composition when added to water, but salt does. Therefore, perhaps the sugar does not cause the screw to bubble much.
_The tank is compressing the helium into a denser state but when it is put in the balloons it expands and takes up more space. __________________________________________________________________________
The purpose of this investigation is to test the effect of different sugar sources on yeast respiration.
Drop the yeast sphere into the graduated cylinder. As soon as the sphere touches the surface of the hydrogen peroxide, start the timer. Each person should be responsible for a concentration.
While the little guy’s line from the play ignites the Guy’s decision, the hot air balloon is the method of practicing his dream. The Guy keeps telling his wife that he knows how the balloon flies and it is not a miracle
Though many people will think there is a lot of bad in soda, technically it’s just carbonated water, which is basically “gas that’s called carbon dioxide that has been dissolved under high pressure” (sciencebuddies.org). When one opens a can of soda pop the carbon dioxide in it is released out causing the bubbles in the drink, and the best part for this project is that one can choose their own way to do it, yes they may have to follow what the recipe calls for but they can choose their favorite flavors and their own color for it like if they wanted to they could make a bacon flavored pop but it might not taste the best but the point would be that it would be their own idea.
The balloon's meaning is an alarmingly mysterious. The lack of a fixed reason for the balloon creates a lack of trust, frustration, and hostility for the authorities. Experts conduct secret tests to determine ways of removing or destroying the balloon, but because the narrator has hidden the pumps, there was nothing the authorities could do.
3. Bring the charged balloon close to the paper scraps from Part 2. How does the rubbed balloon
The procedure for this experiment was to first obtain four balloons and blow them up in order to stretch them. Then obtain and fill the four large test tubes each with thirty milliliters of warm forty degrees Celsius water and two grams of dry yeast which was weighed on a scale and scooped out by a spatula. After five milliliters of water, ten percent glucose, fructose or sucrose went into one of the four test tubes. Then parafilm was placed on top of each of the test tubes to seal them and they were swirled activating the yeast through rehydration. After swirling the film was removed and the balloons were tightly placed on the test tubes. Then finally observed the tubes build up of CO2 all the while swirling gently every fifteen minutes, recording observations.
The amount of mass lost in the open system was larger than the closed system. As shown in the table, 1.2 grams was lost during the reaction in an open system compared to only 0.71 grams under a closed system. When observing the closed system, it was noticed that the balloon was rapidly expanding due to a particular gas forming. When the balloon was removed and a lit match was immediately placed on top of the conical flask, a gas that was within it extinguished the fire. This must have meant that the gas that was created during the reaction must have been one that was able to extinguish fire.
