How temperature affects the rate of an enzyme controlled reaction Aim: To investigate how temperature affects the rate of an enzyme controlled reaction. Variables: There are 4 variables, which can be changed in this reaction: -Concentration -Quantity -P. H. -Temperature I am going to investigate how temperature affects the rate of an enzyme controlled reaction so I am going to change the temperature. The other 2 variables must be kept the same. I will keep the others the same by using the same amount of substances at the same concentration and the same pH. This will help to make the investigation a fair test. Preliminary Work: In my preliminary work I found out that 15cm3 of 2% Starch and 5 cm3 of 0.1% Amylase worked at the best speed. Any more amylase or less starch worked to quickly and anymore Starch and less Amylase took too long. Safety: As this experiment involves enzymes that can be harmful and high temperatures...
