To Investigate the Effect of the Enzyme Catalyse On Hydrogen Peroxide Introduction The aim of this experiment is to determine the effects of varying enzyme (catalyse) on Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen Peroxide + Catalyse --> Water + Oxygen 2H2O2 --> H2O + O2 + Heat Apparatus & Diagram Using the Equipment Safely It is important that we use the apparatus carefully, as safety will be an issue throughout the whole experiment. We will wear goggles and an apron or lab coat to protect our eyes and clothes. As we are using enzymes and Hydrogen Peroxide we need to be extra careful, ensuring they don't come into contact with our eyes, skin or clothes. Catalyse is an enzyme found in all living cells. It makes Hydrogen Peroxide decompose into water and Oxygen. We will be measuring the amount of Oxygen released from the Hydrogen Peroxide. In order to do this we will use a measuring cylinder. This piece of apparatus...
