    The document aims to observe how different concentrations of the enzyme catalase affect its activity by measuring the volume of oxygen produced from decomposing hydrogen peroxide. It hypothesizes that increasing the catalase concentration will increase oxygen volume up to substrate saturation, after which the reaction rate and oxygen volume will remain constant. The experiment will test this by measuring oxygen volumes at various catalase concentrations while controlling other variables.

    Aim: To observe the effect of different enzyme concentrations on enzyme activity.

    Research Question: To what extent does changing the concentration (1, 2, 3, 4, 5


    mol/dm3) of catalase affect the volume of oxygen produced during the breakdown of
    hydrogen peroxide?

    Hypothesis: Increasing the concentration of catalase increases the volume of oxygen


    produced until the available substrates are occupied, the rate of reaction remains constant,
    and the volume of oxygen produced remains constant.

    Variables:
    Independent variable: Concentration of catalase
    Dependent variable: Volume of oxygen produced
    Controlled variables: Volume and concentration of hydrogen peroxide, volume of catalase,
    temperature of reaction

    Apparatus: Catalase, hydrogen peroxide, beaker
