The Effect of Catalase in the Breakdown of Hydrogen Peroxide Aim: to give a detailed explanation on enzyme/ catalysts and an experiment to further illustrate my given hypothesis. To explain the effect of catalase as hydrogen peroxide decomposes. In addition; I must investigate Hypothesis: When catalase is the addition to an experiment, the reaction (depending on the volume of the concentration) would be a fast one. If this catalase is reacted with hydrogen peroxide, it would provide energy to produce oxygen and water. By measuring the level of the speed of the reaction, one can determine the volume of oxygen produced. The higher the oxygen amount; the faster the reaction had occurred. As the concentration is decreased, it means that the rate of the reaction would decrease. For this, I predict the higher the amount of catalase concentration added to the solution, against the substrate, the faster the rate of reaction. I also predict;...
