Yeast respiration The possible factors that could affect the reaction are the temperature at which the reaction takes place. The concentration of hydrogen peroxide used, the volume of the hydrogen peroxide used and the area of the catalase that is exposed to the hydrogen peroxide, when the mass of the potato is kept the same. The temperature at which the reaction takes place affects the reaction, as when the temperature is increased the rte of reaction is also increased until the temperature reaches 40 degrees centigrade and he enzymes are denatured. The concentration of H2O2 affects the reaction as when the concentration is increased the reaction is also increased a there is more chance of collision with a higher concentration. The volume of H2O2 used affects the reaction as, when there is more H202 to react with the rate of reaction will take longer because the catalase will have to...
