Natural Gas Diesel Fuel
733 wordsWe have known for a long time that eventually our oil deposits will dry up, and it would be helpful at that time if we had some kind of alternative fuel to power all of the machines that we use. Over the past two decades more oil has been pumped than has been found in the world. For this reason scientists have been looking to potential alternative fuels for the future. One of these alternative fuels may come in the form of natural gas. Natural gas has been found to be more plentiful than oil, an...

Three And Four Reaction Rate
859 wordsTitle: Examining Some Properties of the Enzyme -amylase In this experiment a deeper meaning in the catalysts of reactions is studied. Catalysts accelerate chemical reactions without permanently changing the reaction. Enzymes, catalysts in biochemical reactions, are globular proteins which lower the activation energy needed to begin a reaction and therefore increase the rate at which efficient reactions can occur. Proteins (henceforth enzymes) are complex molecules made of amino acids in polypept...

Amino Acids Living Organisms
979 wordsProteins are the macromolecules of life. Discovered in 1838, proteins are recognized as a large number of superior organic compounds that make up living organisms and are essential to their functioning. The term protein comes from the Greek word proteins or primary. Proteins have many different properties and function in a variety of ways. They can function as a building material, in teeth, bones and muscles, and they can serve as enzymes, hormones, and neurotransmitters. Its functions are the m...

Hydrogen Atoms Oxygen Atoms
824 wordsTwo Americans and a Japanese were awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing more efficient chemical reactions to produce many medicines, including L-dopa, the standard treatment for Parkinson's disease. Dr. William S. Knowles, 84, of St. Louis, who retired from the Monsanto Company in 1986, and Dr. Ryoji Noyori, 63, director of the Research Center for Materials Science at Nagoya University in Japan, shared half of the $ 950, 000 award.

Nitrogen Dioxide Sulfur Dioxide
1,372 wordsCatalysts &# 038; Fine Particle In Industry Catalyst: Catalysis, alteration of the speed of a chemical reaction, through the presence of an additional substance, known as a catalyst, that remains chemically unchanged by the reaction. Enzymes, which are among the most powerful catalysts, play an essential role in living organisms, where they accelerate reactions that otherwise would require temperatures that would destroy most of the organic matter. A catalyst in a solution with-or in the same ph...

Carbon Dioxide And Water H 2 O
640 wordsThis paper is on the processes of fermentation, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, diffusion, osmosis, and enzyme activity. What do these six processes have in common? Fermentation is a chemical process that breaks down organic materials. This process is carried out by such microbes as bacteria, molds, and yeasts. For example, molds or fungi act upon mixtures of molasses and mineral salts to produce penicillin. Yeast breaks down sugar gotten from malted grain into ethyl alcohol and carbon dio...

Rate Of Reaction Calcium Carbonate
2,367 wordsInvestigation Into The Relationship Between Temperature Of Investigation Into The Relationship Between Temperature Of Acid And The Rate Of Reaction In The Reaction Of Caco 3 And Hcl Background Information The speed at which reactants are converted into products during a reaction is referred to as its rate. Usually in a reaction, the amount of the product of the reaction is measured to work out the rate of the reaction. In this reaction, the rate will be calculated by the equation: Rate = 1 Time....

Alkaline Earth Metals Transition Metals Elements
421 wordsTransition Elements, series of chemical elements that share similar electron orbital structures and hence similar chemical properties. The transition elements are commonly defined as the 30 elements with atomic numbers 21 to 30, 39 to 48, and 71 to 80. The transition elements exhibit multiple valences or oxidation states typically ranging from + 1 to + 8 in compounds. In organometallic compounds, consisting of metals bonded to organic species, transition metals sometimes take on negative oxidati...
