An Investigation on the effect of catalase on hydrogen peroxide Aim: To investigate the effect of temperature on the enzyme catalase. Introduction: I will look to see how catalase affects the temperature on hydrogen peroxide. I will not be changing the different strengths of acids and I will try to make it a fair test. I will hopefully enjoy this piece of coursework. I will be working with Kyle Coleman when it comes to the experiment. Prediction: Using my existing scientific knowledge, I predict that as I raise the temperature to 30, 35, and 40, this is where we will see the greatest reaction. I predict this because enzymes are designed to react best at the body temperatures of the animals to which they belong. For a mammal, this is around 35-36. Catalysts are used to speed up biochemical reactions in the body. An enzyme is a protein molecule that speeds up chemical reactions in...
