In this laboratory you will observe the conversion of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen gas by the enzyme catalase. You will then measure the amount of oxygen generated and calculate the rate of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction. After doing this laboratory you should be able to: measure the effects of changes in temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, and substrate concentration on reaction rates.
