Analysing, Drawing Conclusions and Evaluating Interpretation of Results As the enzyme concentration increases so too does the volume of juice. This is because as the concentration of enzyme molecules increase there is more chance of a collision with an apple substrate molecule. If the chance of a collision is increased then the number of collisions will increase resulting in a higher rate of reaction. The enzyme combines with the substrate to form an enzyme-substrate complex. Enzyme + Substrate ¬¬¬> Enzyme-Substrate Complex The enzyme-substrate complex then breaks down to give the product and releases the enzyme in an unchanged form: Enzyme-Substrate Complex ¬¬¬> Product + Enzyme So I can conclude that the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the enzyme. This is clear from the results that I myself obtained and from the class average. We can see that as the concentration of the enzyme increases so does the volume of juice (product)...
